Chapter 8 Sugar: Part 2

During a fun science project at school, Grace, Jaylon, and Tyanna are experimenting with sugar crystals. They come across a tricky substance. Can you help them figure out what an interfering agent is?

• The hydrolysis of sucrose.

• A disaccharide found in malted grains.

• A substance that can prevent or slow crystal growth.

• A simple sugar containing one basic molecule.

Madison, Jackson, and Mikaela are on a culinary quest to perfect their homemade candy recipe. Can you help them understand what invert sugar is, which they came across in an old cookbook?

• A disaccharide found in malted grains.

• A substance that can prevent or slow crystal growth in candies.

• A simple sugar containing one basic molecule.

• The hydrolysis of sucrose, often used in confectionery to prevent crystallization.

Hey there, science enthusiasts! Luara, Kaylee, and Fernando are on an educational journey through a dairy farm. As they explore, they come across a fascinating substance and need your help to identify it. What is lactose?

• A substance that can prevent or slow crystal growth.

• The hydrolysis of sucrose.

• A disaccharide that is made of one glucose molecule and one galactose molecule and found in milk.

• A disaccharide found in malted grains.

Hey there, science enthusiasts! Fernando and Mikaela are on a culinary quest in the kitchen, trying to create some scrumptious snacks. They come across a jar of maltose and ponder, 'What is this sweet substance?' Can you lend them a hand to uncover its mystery?

• The magical spell for transforming sucrose into confections!

• A disaccharide that's a creamy combo of glucose and galactose, typically found in dairy delights!

• A tandem of glucose molecules found in malted treats!

• A charming component that prevents sugar crystals from ruining the smooth texture of sweets!

Kayden, Mia, and Connor are on a culinary quest to perfect their homemade gingerbread cookies. In their recipe research, they encounter a peculiar ingredient known as molasses. But what exactly is molasses?

• A substance that can prevent or slow crystal growth.

• The hydrolysis of sucrose.

• A disaccharide that is made of one glucose molecule and one galactose molecule and found in milk.

• Crude, boiled liquid pressed from sugar cane.

Hey there, sweet-toothed scientists! Mia, Fernando, and Jackson are on a candy quest and stumbled upon a sugary puzzle. Can you help them figure out what a monosaccharide is?

• The hydrolysis of sucrose.

• A substance that can prevent or slow crystal growth.

• A simple sugar containing one basic molecule.

• Crude, boiled liquid pressed from sugar cane.

Hey Andrew, Jaylon, and Fernando! We're about to enjoy our picnic in the park. Before we start, can you explain what 'organic' means on these apple juice labels?

• Labeling term that indicates the juice was produced through approved methods.

• A substance that can prevent or slow crystal growth in the juice.

• The hydrolysis of sucrose in the juice.

• A simple sugar containing one basic molecule in the juice.

Hey Ashley, Mia, and Jaylon! Imagine you are in a forest, surrounded by green trees. Can you explain to me what process allows these trees to convert sunlight into glucose?

• Is it the process where a material carries the genetic code from DNA and is used for making protein?

• Or is it the process where deposits of lipids and cholesterol on the artery wall result when there is too much cholesterol in the blood?

• Could it be the process where a sticky film is produced by bacteria that live in the mouth and feed on sugars?

• Or is it a magical process through which plants convert energy from the sun into glucose?

Hey there, Erin, Tyanna, and Jackson! Imagine you're a team of detectives on a mission to explore the secrets of human health. Your first clue is to figure out what plaque is. Are you ready to solve the mystery?

• Material that carries the genetic code from DNA and is used for making protein.

• Deposits of lipids and cholesterol on the artery wall resulting when there is too much cholesterol in the blood.

• A process through which plants convert energy from the sun into glucose.

• Sticky film produced by bacteria that live in the mouth and feed on sugars.

During a school science fair, Tyanna, Jackson, and Grace are presenting a project on molecular biology. The judge asks them, 'What is RNA?' How should they explain it?

• It's the material that carries the genetic code from DNA and is used for making protein.

• It's a process through which plants convert energy from the sun into glucose.

• It's a sugar that contains only five carbon atoms.

• It's a sticky film produced by bacteria that live in the mouth and feed on sugars.
