Solution

The correct option is A 1 mole of glucose + 1 mole of fructose + 2 mole of galactose
Stachyose is a tetrasaccharide consisting of two αD Galactose units, one αD glucose unit and a βD fructose unit. Hence upon hydrolysis of one mole of stachyose, the constituents will separate out resulting into 1mole of glucose, 1mole of fructose and 2moles of galactose
