Solution

The correct option is B glycosidic
Glycosidic bond is formed by combining aldo or keto group with a hydroxyl group in another sugar unit or an alcohol molecule or nitrogen compounds. Glycosidic bonds are products of condensation reaction. Glycosidic bonds hold the adjacent sugar molecules in disacharides and polysacharides.
