Solution

The correct option is A True
Monosaccharides are the simplest form of sugars. They are the building blocks of polysaccharides, that are formed by formation of glycosidic bonds through condensation reactions between two monosaccharide, that are closed ring compounds that cannot be hydrolysed as they are not formed due to condensation. therefore, these cannot be hydrolysed to its components or cannot be broken down further
So the given statement is true.
