Question

Match the following;
a) Aldohexose
b) Ketohexose
c) Non-reducing disaccharide
d) Reducing disaccharide
e) Polysaccharide
i) Maltose
ii) Glycogen
iii) Glucose
iv) Sucrose
v) Fructose

• A. a-(iii), b-(v), c-(iv), d-(i), e-(ii)
• B. a-(iii), b-(ii), c-(i), d-(v), e-(iv)
• C. a-(i), b-(ii), c-(iii), d-(v), e-(iv)
• D. a-(iii), b-(iv), c-(v), d-(i), e-(ii)
• E. a-(iii), b-(ii), c-(iv), d-(i), e-(v)

Hint:

Glucose is aldohexose; fructose is ketohexose; sucrose is non-reducing.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Concept: Classification of carbohydrates.

Step 1: Match each.

• Aldohexose $\rightarrow$ Glucose (iii)
• Ketohexose $\rightarrow$ Fructose (v)
• Non-reducing disaccharide $\rightarrow$ Sucrose (iv)
• Reducing disaccharide $\rightarrow$ Maltose (i)
• Polysaccharide $\rightarrow$ Glycogen (ii)
