Solution
The correct option is B Glycosidic bonds
- Polysaccharides are carbohydrates formed from multiple units of monosaccharide joined together by glycosidic bonds.
- Glycosidic bonds are the covalent bonds linking monosaccharide sugars to some other compound.
- In polysaccharide, glycosidic bonds are the covalent linkage between two monosaccharide residues formed by a dehydration reaction in which one carbon, usually the carbon-1 of one sugar reacts with a hydroxyl group on a second sugar with the loss of a water molecule.
Hence, the correct option is A
