In conclusion, use the quotient rule to help you find the derivative of functions that have fraction expressions in them, but only if you have to. It often gives you and ugly expression that is difficult to simplify and may steer you towards an incorrect answer if you use it when there are easier methods.n order to differentiate this, we need the product rule. The product rule allows us to differentiate a function when the function is a product of two distinct parts. In this example, we have the polynomial 3x 2 + 4x - 5 and the transcendental function sin(x).
1 All carbohydrates are characterized by the carbonyl functional group (C=O) along with a number of hydroxyl functional groups(CâOH). 2  Aldehydes have the carbonyl group at the end of the molecule. 3  Glucose, pictured here, is an example of an aldehyde sugar (aldose). 4  It is the most common monosaccharide in living systems.

Simple carbohydrates are classified as either monosaccharides or disaccharides. Monosaccharides are the simplest, most basic units of carbohydrates and are made up of only one sugar unit. Glucose and fructose are monosaccharides and are the building blocks of sucrose, a disaccharide.Thus, disaccharides are just a pair of linked sugar molecules. They are formed when two monosaccharides are joined together and a molecule of water is removed -- a dehydration reaction.ucrose is commonly known as table sugar, and is obtained from sugar cane or sugar beets. Fruits and vegetables also naturally contain sucrose. When sucrose is consumed, the enzyme beta-fructosidase separates sucrose into its individual sugar units of glucose and fructose.
