The predominant form of glucose in solution is a ring structure represented by the Haworth projection. Why then does glucose give a positive test and react completely in reactions which are characteristic of its straight chain form?
In the ring structure, glucose stays in hemiacetal form. In open chain form, glucose has an aldehyde functional group. The ring structure is formed when the aldehyde functional group condenses with one of the alcohol functional groups. The ring structures of glucose always stays in equilibrium with the open chain structure in solution. Hence, glucose gives a positive test (e.g. positive Tollens' test) and react completely in reactions which are characteristic of aldehyde functional group.

Glucose generally exists in ring (cyclic) form. A Haworth projection shows the orientations of the hydroxyl groups and hydrogen atoms on the ring. Draw the alpha and beta forms of glucose by moving the groups (H, OH, or CH2OH) to the appropriate positions.
