Which of the following is a trisaccharide?
Options
- AStachyrose
- BSucrose
- CRaffinose
- DRibose
Correct answer
C. Raffinose
Step-by-step solution
On hydrolysis stachyrose gives four, sucrose gives two raffinose gives three and ribose gives no molecule, of monosaccharides. Thus, only raffinose is a trisaccharide. C ₁₈ H ₃₂ O ₁₆+ H ₂ O 3 C ₆ H ₁₂ O ₆ raffinose
