The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Sucrose is formed from \(\alpha\)-D-glucose and \(\beta\)-D-fructose (\(\alpha\)-1,\(\beta\)-2 glycosidic link): (a) \(\to\) (ii).
Lactose is formed from \(\beta\)-D-galactose and \(\beta\)-D-glucose (\(\beta\)-1,4 link): (b) \(\to\) (i).
Maltose is formed from two \(\alpha\)-D-glucose units (\(\alpha\)-1,4 link): (c) \(\to\) (iii).
Answer: (3) (a) \(\to\) (ii), (b) \(\to\) (i), (c) \(\to\) (iii)
