....................contains two D glucose residues joined by a glycosidic linkage between OH at the first carbon atom of the first glucose residues and OH at the fourth carbon atom of the second glucose forming a α-(1,4) glycosidic linkage.

.......................do not easily go out of vascular compartment they are used for intravenous infusion as plasma volume expander in the treatment of hypovolemic shock.

When two monosaccharides are covalently bonded together by glycosidic linkages a disaccharide is formed.

Lactose acts as a reducing substance since it has a free carbonyl group on the glucose.

Proteoglycans are proteins to which oligosaccharides are covalently attached.

How many units of monosaccharide does Oligosaccharides contain?

..........................is a disaccharide of α- D- glucose and β-D-fructose. It is obtained from cane sugar, and it is also present in various fruits.

...............................is a part of connective tissue, which is a gel like substance containing water, salt, proteins and polysaccharides.

What do we call carbohydrates that are found in nature and occur in the form of high molecular polymers?

Is formed when the hydroxyl group on one of the sugars reacts with the anomeric carbon on the second sugar.

Monosaccharides consist of a single polyhydroxy aldehyde or ketone units.

Monosaccharides is a carbon that has four different groups or atoms attached to it and having optically activity in solution.

.........................................is a carbon that has four different groups or atoms attached to it and having optically activity in solution.

Monosaccharides with n number of asymmetric centers will have?

What causes optical activity?
