Diagram Of A Model Boat Non Reducing End And Reducing End Of A Glucose Residue?

Non reducing end and reducing end of a glucose residue? - diagram of a model boat

Hello,
I do not understand why a glucose residue would have a reducing end, and a third term because both the reduction of carbon dioxide from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. C to H and OH, the only difference is connected, that one is bound instead of an oxygen atom carbon. How will not be reduced?

I look shown on the graph:

glucose.in no structural heart doubt.check watch ur support a linear structure of this structure, we find that the C1 an aldehyde group and other carbon atoms HAV only them.so alcoholic groups T1 with the aldehyde group as the last and final Reduction and C6 with the OH group wud no reduction in the final.
