Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
To state the monosaccharide unit, type of glycosidic bond and the name of the disaccharide including its alpha or beta form in the given molecule.
Concept Introduction :
A disaccharide is a type of sugar which is made up of two monosaccharides units that are joined together by a linkage known as glycosidic linkage. Glycosidic linkage is formed as a result of linkage of -OH group on carbon no.1 of one monosaccharide with the hydroxyl group present on the carbon number 4 of other molecule of monosaccharide. The two monosaccharides forming disaccharide molecule can be same or different depending upon the disaccharide to be formed.
(b)
