Step-by-step solution
Sucrose (cane sugar; beet sugar; saccharose) is a sugar comprising one molecule of glucose linked to a fructose molecule. It occurs widely in plants and is particularly abundant in sugar cane and sugar beet ((15-20 %) ), from which it is extracted and refined for table sugar. If heated to (200^ C ), sucrose becomes caramel. Sucrose is broken down into the monosaccharides glucose and fructose with the help of carbohydrate digesting enzyme, invertase, produced in the small intestine (duodenum).
