HELP HELP! The diagram below shows the formation of the disaccharide maltose, which occurs when two molecules of glucose undergo a dehydration reaction.

a. Describe the result if a molecule of fructose became bound to glucose instead.

b. Explain how the properties of the molecule that forms might differ from maltose.

What is the significance of the protein-lined pits? a. protein attracts other proteins needed for atp synthesis within the cell. b. protein-lined pits are able to transport one molecule at a time down the concentration gradient within the cell. c. the polarity of proteins allows other polar molecules to attach and be transported in the cell by transport channels. d. receptors within the pits allow ligands to fuse and be transported into the cell by endocytosis.
