Question

a disaccharide is a carbohydrate made of two monosaccharides bonded together. one example of a disaccharide is sucrose. in plant cells, glucose and fructose can react to form sucrose. plants with high levels of sucrose, like beets and sugar cane, are harvested by people to make granulated sugar for baking and cooking. the model shows the chemical structure of sucrose. select the true statements. beets are a source of sucrose. fructose and glucose have the same chemical structure. sucrose can be made in plant cells. monosaccharides are made by joining two disaccharides.

Explanation:

• "Beets are a source of sucrose." - The text states that plants with high - levels of sucrose like beets are harvested for sugar, so this is true.
• "Fructose and glucose have the same chemical structure." - From the model, we can see they have different structures, so this is false.
• "Sucrose can be made in plant cells." - The text says glucose and fructose can react to form sucrose in plant cells, so this is true.
• "Monosaccharides are made by joining two disaccharides." - Disaccharides are made by joining two monosaccharides, not the other way around, so this is false.

Answer:

Beets are a source of sucrose.
Sucrose can be made in plant cells.
