somebody help me,
how do these carbohydrates:maltose, lactose, starch, glycogen, sucrose, fructose, mannose and galactose ultimately enter the glycolytic sequence.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Well the basis of all those carbohydrates is glucose. For example maltose is broken down to glucose by hydrolysis, lactase breaks lactose into glucose and galactose.
I don't know if that answers your question.
