Solution

The correct option is A Lactose
Oligosaccharides are formed by joining together 2-9 monosaccharides molecules. For example maltose, sucrose, lactose.
Lactose is called milk sugar. It is composed of one glucose molecule and one galactose molecule joined by 1 and 4 carbons. Thus option A is the correct answer.
