Long term energy storage for plants (roots, seeds) Digested by hydrolysis in germinating seeds to provide glucose energy. Celery is made up of cellulose structural support. They end in -ose they are the structural components of plant. Any carbohydrate bigger than a monosaccharide mouth and small intestine glucose + fructose cellulose. Stored energy glucose + galactose to break apart--- aka, they are the enzymes that. What does lysis in hydrolysis mean? break apart things. Enzyme: amylase what does it break starch down into? many glucoses. Enzyme: sucrase what does it break sucrose down into. Human enzymes can easily break the bonds between glucose molecules. ***human enzyme allows for glucose to be absorbed into bloodstream and delivered to cells. Humans do not have an enzyme that can break the bonds between the glucoses in fiber.
