Answer #1

It breaks down each of the sugar individually.

Bacteria breaks down sugar with the help of certain enzymes. 1 enzyme can act on 1 substrate (sugar molecule) at a time. When enzymes are more, the substrates, sugars can be easily breakdown at a given time. When the enzymes are fewer than sugars, breaks down of sugars will be slower. Because, enzyme does not acts multiple substrate at the same time. So, breaks down are done individually.
