Glucose is a simple sugar: a monosaccharide. Cellulose however is a poly saccharide: a chain of many monomers. We do not posess the enzymes required to break down those chains into monomers, thus we cannot digest it. We can break down other carbohydrates into smaller digestible fragments, but not cellulose.

You mean Ethanol. In the upper mid-west of USA it is corn (cool climate). In tropical(hot) climates it is sugar. Both require much heat (energy) to reduce or change the product into ethanol.

Actually, Meg, there are several different forms of "sugar", so you'd need to be a bit more specific.\n\nGranulated sugar that you buy in the store is processed cane sugar, properly named sucrose -- C12H22O11.  It has a molecular weight of 342.30 grams/mole, a melting point of 185-186 °C, and decomposes before boiling.  The density is 1.5805 grams/cm3.\n\nSeveral other forms of sugars are well known -- glucose, fructose, galactose, hexose, mannose, etc -- all in the larger family of carbohydrates.  You can find out more here:\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbohydrate

Carbohydrates: include sugars and their polymers. They include monosaccharides disaccharides, and polysaccharides. The monosaccharide is a monomer, the disaccharide is a polymer,and the polysaccharides are macromolecules.\n \nMonosaccharides: The basic formula (CH2O)\nExamples: triose sugars, 3 carbons, glyceraldehyde and dihydroxyacetone; pentose sugars. 5 carbons. ribose, deoxyribose, and ribulose; hexose sugars, 6 carbons, glucose, galactose, and fructose.\n     \n\n \n \nDisaccharides: These are double sugars with the formula C12H22O11. Notice that one molecule of water is missing from the formula. The covalent bond holding the two monomers together is called a 1-4 or 1-2 glycoside linkage. Examples: sucrose = glucose + fructose. maltose = glucose + glucose, and lactose = glucose + galactose.\n \n     \n\n \nPolysaccharides: The basic formula is ( C6H10O5)n . These are macromolecules capable of acting as structural or storage molecules.\n \nStorage Polysaccharides: Starch is a plant storage polysaccharide that is composed entirely of glucose joined by @1-4 glycoside linkages. amylose is the simplest form of starch. amylopectin is more complex and is branched. Glycogen is an animal starch stored in the liver and muscles of vertebrates. It is more highly branched than amylopectin.\n \nStructural Polysaccharides: Cellulose and chitin are examples of structural polysaccharides.\nCellulose is the most abundant organic compound on earth. It is made of glucose, like starch, but they differ in the type of 1-4 linkage. Instead of an @ linkage as in starch cellulose contains a B 1-4 linkage.\nThis causes the polysaccharide to take on a step arrangement and not a linear one like in starch.\nEnzymes find it difficult to brake the B 1-4 linkage.

When the name of a substance ends in ASE, that suggests that its an enzyme.  All enzymes are proteins, though sometimes they contain non-protein components.

since glucose is a monosaccharide, it is a simple sugar with a formula of C6H12O6. Now, to make glucose very easily, here's a hint. Since glucose is a product of photosynthesis (along with oxygen) just get a plant, put it under a UV light, and voila, glucose. The chemical formula for photosynthesis is (6)H2O + (6) CO2 + Light = C6H12O6 + (6)O2

The primary sugars in honey are dextrose and levulose.  The composition of corn syrups can vary, depending on how it is refined.  The primary sugars in it are fructose and glucose.  Table sugar, as you said, is primarily sucrose.\n\nThere is a lot to be said about sugar/carbohydrate chemistry, so I would refer to an organic chemistry book to learn more (I've forgotten a lot from my O Chem days).  I do remember that sucrose is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose (both monosaccharides).  A monosaccharide is basically a carbohydrate that cannot be hydrolyzed into smaller compounds.  Compounds composed of many monosaccharides (polysaccharides) are called starches or complex carbohydrates.\n\nAs far as what nutritional impact different sugars have, I'm definitely not qualified to answer that.

Ribose is a five-carbon sugar (pentose) found primarily in ribonucleic acid (RNA)\nExamples would be Disaccharides - double sugars

It is called glycolysis.  Also note that one 6-carbon glucose is broken down into two 3-carbon compounds.  Each 3-carbon compound is called pyruvate.

Polysaccharides are made up of monosaccharides, so naturally their hydrolysis would give monosaccharides i.e. simple sugars

Did you mean collulose, or perhaps cellulose?\nCollulose is a derivative of cellulose so requires a different answer.
