Accepted Answer

Fructose is a type of sugar that is classified as a hexose because it is a six-carbon monosaccharide. It is an isomer of glucose, meaning that it has the same chemical formula but a different arrangement of atoms. Fructose is a carbohydrate and is found in many fruits, honey, and high-fructose corn syrup. It is also found in male reproductive fluids. Therefore, all of the answers are correct.
