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 is a type of sugar found in milk. Lactase is a protein, an enzyme that is produced in the small intestine-it breaks down lactose. Individuals with lactose intolerance do not produce enough lactase.People with adequate amounts of lactase can break down lactose into glucose and galactose (a type of sugar) which are then absorbed into the bloodstream.actose is a type of sugar found in milk.
