1.Any of a group of organic compounds, including sugars, starches, celluloses, and gums, that contain only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen and that originate chiefly as products of photosynthesis. Carbohydrates serve as a major energy source for living things. ...
Carrot is well known as being a good carotenoid provider. Moreover, carrot roots also contain many other beneficial contents, including vitamins, carbohydrates and minerals6,185. According to Li et al., sugars, glucose, fructose and starch are the main types of carbohydrates in carrot storage ro...
Hesperidin, for instance, has been demonstrated to block the activity of alpha-glucosidase, an enzyme involved in the breakdown of carbohydrates21,73. To understand the mechanism of action and possible therapeutic effects, molecular docking can predict the binding site and the degree of interaction ...
the plants provide the bacteria with carbohydrates and other organic compounds, and the bacteria have enzymes that act as catalysts that eventually add nitrogen to the soil, enriching it.In the second case, pollinators (insects, birds) obtain food from the flowering plant, and the plant has its...
