==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
[[Disaccharide]]s are [[sugar]]s made from two [[monosaccharide]]s that are all [[isomer]]s with the [[Chemical Formula|formula]] C<sub>12</sub>H<sub>22</sub>O<sub>11</sub>.
===About Disaccharides===
: [[Disaccharides]]s [[Chemical Reaction|react]] together in a [[polymerisation]] [[Chemical Reaction|reaction]].
: [[Disaccharides]]s must be broken into [[monosaccharide]]s before they can provide [[energy]] to the [[Cell (Biology)|cells]] via [[respiration]].
The three main [[disaccharides]]s are:
*[[Maltose]]
*[[Lactose]]
*[[Sucrose]]
