With his words‚ Wordsworth makes this message perpetual and everlasting. William Wordsworth

As we can see on the graph we can tell how clearly glucose has highest respiration rate of 455 ppm/min. Sucrose is second with 391 ppm/min‚ then fructose with 231 ppm/min and lastly lactose with 92 ppm/min.
