THE DISACCHARIDASES LOCATED IN THE BRUSH BORDER MEMBRANE OF THE SMALL INTESTINE CELLS FURTHER REDUCE DISACCHARIDES AND POLYSACCHARIDES INTO THE ABSORBABLE MONOSACCHARIDE UNITS OF GLUCOSE, GALACTOSE, AND FRUCTOSE.

Glucose and galactose are components of many disaccharides,oliogsaccharides, and polysaccharides. Sort these commoncarbohydrates to indicate if they contain glucose, galactose, orboth.

Items (6 items) (Drag and drop into the appropriate areabelow)

• Lacto-N-tetraose
• Maltose
• Raffinose
• Starch
• Sucrose
• Lactose

How would you determine if the expression of gal pathway genes was affected by oligosaccharides containg galactose and glucose relative to the monosaccharide galactose?
