On treatment with aqueous base, D-fructose slowly undergoes cleavage to form dihydroxyacetone and D-glyceraldehyde (in low yield). The second step of this reaction produces two organic products, one of which is an anion with two resonance structures. Draw the structures of the two products formed in the second step of the reaction. Draw only one resonance structure for the anionic product.
