Question

In a disaccharide monomers are linked with each other through .............

• A. Peptides bonds
• B. Hydrogen bonds
• C. Glycosidic bonds
• D. Ester bonds

Answer 1

The correct option is C Glycosidic bonds

• Disaccharides are class of sugars whose molecules contain two monosaccharide residues.
• It is formed when two monosaccharide molecules displace a hydroxyl radical from one molecule and a hydrogen from the other and the vacant bonds on the monosaccharides are join the two monomers together.
• Thus, a glycosidic bond is formed between the two monosaccharide molecules.

So, the correct answer is 'Glycosidic bonds'.
