For one, dextrose and glucose are both monomers, or to be specific, monosaccharides.
Dextrose and glucose are essentially the same thing, except that dextrose is specifically D-glucose. There exists two stereoisomeric forms of glucose, being D-glucose and L-glucose. "D" refers to "right" and "L" refers to "left". Essentially stereoisomeric means that D-glucose and L-glucose are mirror images of each other. T
The difference between L-glucose and R-glucose is that L-glucose cannot be metabolized during glycolysis which is a component of cellular respiration.
No, dextrose is actually another name for glucose, a simple sugar. A polymer is a larger molecule made up of repeating units called monomers, whereas glucose is a monosaccharide, a single sugar unit.
No, glucose is a monosaccharide, which means it is a simple sugar and not a polymer. Glucose molecules are individual units that can polymerize to form complex carbohydrates like starch or glycogen.
Cellulose. Cellulose is a polymer of glucose molecules. It is different from starch or glycogen due to the type of bond between the glucose molecules.
Glycosidic Bond. For example, in a disaccharide, two monosaccharides form a glycosidic bond with the loss of water.

Another name for Glucose is Dextrose
No, glucose is a monosaccharide, which means it is a simple sugar and not a polymer. Glucose molecules are individual units that can polymerize to form complex carbohydrates like starch or glycogen.
If starch is the polymer, then the monomer is glucose, which is a monosaccharide. Starch is a polysaccharide that is made up of glucose molecules.
Amylopectin is a branched chain polymer of glucose found in plants, while glycogen is a highly branched polymer of glucose found in animals and humans. Both serve as storage forms of glucose, with glycogen being the main form of energy storage in animals and humans, while amylopectin is the main form of energy storage in plants.
A polymer composed of beta-glucose monomers is cellulose.
Cellulose. Cellulose is a polymer of glucose molecules. It is different from starch or glycogen due to the type of bond between the glucose molecules.
carbohydrate
simple polymer are define as themosofning plastic where as long chain polymer define as thermosetting plastic
Glycosidic Bond. For example, in a disaccharide, two monosaccharides form a glycosidic bond with the loss of water.
It is a polymer of the two simple sugars maltose and dextrose. It is thus a complex carbohydrate.
