Question
Raffinose (see previous question for structure) is not digestible by humans yet is found in foods we eat all the time like beans, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, etc. **Question:** What 2 human digestible compounds can Raffinose be broken down into? Just as a side note, Raff (Raffinose) is NOT digestible by us, but our helpful gut bacteria break it down for us into the 2 compounds that are the answer to this question. **Options:** - ☐ α-D-glucose - ☐ β-D-fructose - ☐ sucrose - ☐ α-D-galactose - ☐ Lactose - ☐ maltose

**Question:** What is the following monosaccharide (ignore α/β anomer designation as well as D/L conformation)? **Image Description:** The image shows the chemical structure of a monosaccharide. It is a six-membered ring with an oxygen atom incorporated in the ring. There are several hydroxyl (OH) groups attached to the carbon atoms of the ring, and a CH₂OH group is attached to one of the carbons outside the ring structure. **Answer Options:** - o galactopyranose - o galactofuranose - o glucopyranose - ● fructopyranose - o glucofuranose - o fructofuranose *Note:* The correct answer, based on the chemical structure shown, is fructopyranose.
