Question

Carbohydrates can be subdivided into 2 major categories. What are they? Simple carbs can be divided into 2 subgroups. What are they? What are the 3 "single" sugars? What is the technical name for "single sugar"? What is the name of the single sugar that is always found in the blood? What is the name of the single sugar that is found in fruit? What are the 3 "double sugars?" (what is the technical name for "double sugar"?). For each one, after it, name the 2 single sugars that make up that double sugar. Which double sugar is found in milk and some dairy products? Which double sugar is found in common table sugar? What is the definition of "polysaccharide"? What are the polysaccharides that occur in food? Into what category of carbohydrate do cellulose, lignin and pectin belong? Which of the polysaccharides is stored in the human body? What is it composed of? Where in the body is the answer the previous question made and stored? What are the 2 technical names for starch? What are they composed of? What are the 3 categories of foods that contain starch? What are 6 commonly eaten foods that are high in starch? (foods, as in something that might be on your plate for breakfast, lunch or dinner) List 5 different types of grains (actual grains). What are the 3 edible parts of every kernel of grain? Which parts of the kernel of grain are removed when a grain is refined? What are the 5 categories of foods that are good sources of fiber? What category of foods do not contain fiber? Here is a list of grain-based foods. Write WG next to those that are a Whole Grain. Write RG next to those that are a Refined Grain. White rice Tortillas made with wheat flour Steel cut oats Rolled oats Bread made with enriched wheat flour Brown rice Pancakes made with whole wheat flour

Explanation / Answer

Carbohydrates-> A) Simple Carbohydrate, B) Complex carbohydrate.

Simple carbohydrate: a) Monosaccharides b) Disaccharides.

3 single sugar: 1) Glucose 2) Galactose 3) Fructose

The technical name of single sugar: Monosaccharides

The single sugar always found in the blood: Glucose

Single sugar of fruit: Fructose

Three double sugar: Sucrose, Lactose, Maltose

Technical name double sugar: Disaccharides

Sucrose= Glucose + Fructose

Lactose = Glucose + Galactose

Maltose: Glucose + Glucose

Sugar found in milk/dairy products: Lactose

Common table sugar: is Sucrose ( glucose + fructose)

Polysaccharides: It is a complex carbohydrate made of multiple monosaccharides molecules joined by glycosidic bonds.

Polysaccharides that occurs in food: Starch( potato), Cellulose( leafy vegetable), Inulin(onions), Pectin ( fruits). Lignins

Lignin, pectin, starch falls in polysaccharides group ( complex carbohydrates)

Stored in the human body: Glycogen

Glycogen is composed of multiple glucose molecules joined by glycosidic bonds.

Glycogen is stored in the skeletal muscle, liver, brain.

2 technical name of starch: Polysaccharides / Complex carbohydrate.

Starch is made of numerous glucose molecules joined by glycosidic bonds.

3 categories of food those contain starch: Cereals, Starchy vegetables( potato), Legume.

6 commonly eaten high starch food: Potato, Bread, Rice, Wheat, Green banana, beans

5 grains: Rice, Wheat, Soybean, Maize, millet

Edible parts of each kernel of grains: Bran, endosperm, Germ.

Bran and germ are removed when grain is refined.

Fiber sources: Vegetables, Fruits, Grains, Nuts, Legumes

Refined grain is low/absent in fibers.
