Experts discover HUGE stone circle in Britain TEN TIMES the size of Stonehenge. ARCHAEOLOGISTS have discovered an untouched Neolithic stone circle that could be TEN TIMES the size of Stonehenge. Historians believe Marden Henge in Wiltshire is the largest prehistoric circular monument in Britain and could be an archaeological treasure-chest.
Disaccharides. Disaccharides are compounds that contain a bond between carbon(1) of one sugar and a hydroxyl group at any position on the other sugar. Disaccharides are sugars containing two hexose units, such as sucrose in cane sugar, maltose in malt sugar and lactose in milk sugar.isaccharides.

Maltose, another notable disaccharide, is made up of two glucose molecules. The two monosaccharides are bonded via a dehydration reaction (also called a condensation reaction or dehydration synthesis) that leads to the loss of a molecule of water and formation of a glycosidic bond.he most common types of disaccharidesâ sucrose, lactose, and maltose âhave twelve carbon atoms, with the general formula C 12 H 22 O 11. The differences in the disaccharides are due to atomic arrangements within the molecule.
