Question

The glycosidic bond formation does not :

• A. Involve the interaction of the H atom of one monosaccharide and the OH of another monosaccharide
• B. Leads to the formation of a polysaccharide/oligosaccharide
• C. Leads to the release of water molecule
• D. Involve addition of water molecule

Answer 1

The correct option is D

Involve addition of water molecule

Glycosidic bond is a condensation reaction between two sugar units, where the H- group from one sugar interacts with the -OH group on another to release water and link the sugar units together to form a polysaccharide.
