  biol> LACTOSE and SUCROSE are

  ukr TSUKOR = SUGAR

  LACTOSE and SUCROSE are ISOMERIC tha is
  IDENTICAL CHEMICALLY as per gr ISO except that
  the molecules are arranged in SPACE as
  MIRROR IMAGES of each other as are
  THE LEFT and RIGHT HANDS which also are ISOMERIC
  SUCROSE is found in BEETS SUGAR CANE and MAPLE SAP
  LACTOSE is found in MILK
  UPON HYDROLISIS or mixing with water
  LACTOSE composed of C12 H12 O11
  becomes GALACTOSE and GLUCOSE
  both composed of C6 H12 O6
  SUCROSE upon hydrolisis becomes
  FRUCTOSE and
  GLUCOSE which is also called DEXTROSE
  because it turns polarized light to the RIGHT
  or is DEXTROROTARY in contrast to LEVOROTARY
  GLUCOSE circulates in human BLOOD
  and is the PRIMARY source for cell ENERGY
  FRUCTOSE is LEVO or LEFT ROTATORY and is called
  LEVULOSE note that it is abundant in HONEY
