The complex relationships between the components in a system mean that a system is more than simply the sum of its parts. It has properties that are properties of the system a â¦ s a whole and cannot be attributed to any specific part of the system, known as 'emergent properties'.
A disaccharide (also called a double sugar or biose) is the sugar formed when two monosaccharides (simple sugars) are joined. Like monosaccharides, disaccharides are soluble in water. Three common examples are sucrose, lactose, and maltose.
Formation. Disaccharides are formed when two monosaccharides are joined together and a molecule of water is removed. For example; milk sugar (lactose) is made from glucose and galactose whereas the sugar from sugar cane and sugar beets (sucrose) is made from glucose and fructose.ormation.
