Which of the following is a disaccharide ?

Options

  1. AGlucose
  2. BFructose
  3. CSucrose
  4. DStarch

Correct answer

C. Sucrose

Step-by-step solution

Glucose and fructose are monosaccharides as they cannot be hydrolyzed further into simpler carbohydrates.

Sucrose is a disaccharide because on hydrolysis it yields two monosaccharide units: α\alpha-D-glucose and β\beta-D-fructose.

Starch is a polysaccharide composed of many glucose units.
