Chemistry - Biomolecules Question with Solution | TestHub

Question Explanation:

Match each saccharide with its classification (mono/di/poly) and reducing nature based on its structure.

Concept:

This question is based on classification of carbohydrates and reducing / Non‑reducing sugars. Solution:

(A) Sucrose is a non‑reducing disaccharide→ P, S.

(B) Maltose is a reducing disaccharide→ R, S.

(C)  Lactose is also a reducing disaccharide→ R, S.

(D)  Cellulose is a non-reducing polysaccharide→ P, Q.

Final Answer: A → P,S ; B → R,S ; C → R,S ; D → P,Q
