Direct democracy. Direct democracy (also known as pure democracy) is a form of democracy in which people decide (e.g. vote on, form consensus on) policy initiatives directly. This differs from the majority of most currently established democracies, which are representative democracies.
Sugars that can be oxidised by mild oxidising agents are called reducing sugars because the oxidising agent is reduced in the reaction. A non-reducing sugar is not oxidised by mild oxidising agents. All common monosaccharides are reducing sugars. The disaccharides maltose and lactose are reducing sugars. The disaccharide sucrose is a non-reducing sugar. Common oxidising agents used to test for the presence of a reducing sugar are: Benedict's Solution.
Lactose intolerance is a common problem. It happens when your body does not have enough lactase, which is an enzyme produced in the small intestine. Lactase is necessary to digest lactoseâthe natural sugar found in milk and other dairy products.In the intestines, undigested lactose leads to the buildup of gas.Within 30 minutes to 2 hours after eating dairy products containing lactose, people with lactose intolerance start to develop stomach cramps and diarrhea.actase is necessary to digest lactoseâthe natural sugar found in milk and other dairy products.
