- 2. complicated chemical arrangements that plants form by combining single glucose units to build starches.
- 3. Substitutes: substances used in place of sugar to sweeten foods yet add few or no calories.
- 4. Carbohydrates: sugars formed from simple and- and two-unit structures.
- 7. nutrient that is a person’s main source of energy; found mostly in plant foods.
- 8. Carbohydrates: carbohydrates with complicated structures; starches.
- 9. Sugars: sugars extracted from plants and used to sweeten foods.
- 10. green pigment in plants; must be present for photosynthesis to occur.
- 11. chemical process by which plants make carbohydrates.
Down
- 1. formed when 2 monosaccharides(single sugars) combine chemically.
- 3. formed when plants combine single glucose units into more complicated chemical structures.
- 4. simple carbohydrates chemically formed from plants; made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
- 5. sugars with single-unit chemical structure.
- 6. Fiber: plant materials that are eaten but can’t be digested by human enzymes.
