Direct democracy. Direct democracy (also known as pure democracy) is a form of democracy in which people decide (e.g. vote on, form consensus on) policy initiatives directly. This differs from the majority of most currently established democracies, which are representative democracies.
Sugars that can be oxidised by mild oxidising agents are called reducing sugars because the oxidising agent is reduced in the reaction. A non-reducing sugar is not oxidised by mild oxidising agents. All common monosaccharides are reducing sugars. The disaccharides maltose and lactose are reducing sugars. The disaccharide sucrose is a non-reducing sugar. Common oxidising agents used to test for the presence of a reducing sugar are: Benedict's Solution.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Lactose is a disaccharide sugar derived from galactose and glucose that is found in milk. Lactose makes up around 2â8% of milk (by weight), although the amount varies among species and individuals, and milk with a reduced amount of lactose also exists.actose is a disaccharide derived from the condensation of galactose and glucose, which form a Î²-1â4 glycosidic linkage. Its systematic name is Î²-.
