A) Ribose

The sugar found in milk is (D) Lactose.  

Sucrose consists of (B) Glucose + fructose.  

The monosaccharide units linked by a 1 → 4 glycosidic linkage are found in (A) Maltose.

(D) Trehalose is a non-reducing sugar. It has a glycosidic bond between the anomeric carbons of both glucose units, which means neither can act as a reducing agent.

(C) Isomaltose is a reducing sugar. It has a free anomeric carbon that can form a reducing group. Sucrose and trehalose are non-reducing sugars because their anomeric carbons are involved in glycosidic...

A disaccharide formed by a 1,1-glycosidic linkage between its monosaccharide units is (C) Trehalose

B) Optical rotation. It is the change in the optical rotation of a solution of a sugar due to the interconversion between different anomeric forms.

The polysaccharide used for intravenous infusion as a plasma substitute is (D) Starch

(A) Glycogen Glycogen is often referred to as "animal starch" because it serves as the primary form of stored carbohydrate in animals, similar to how starch functions in plants.

(B) Agar Agar is a heteroglycan, meaning it is composed of more than one type of sugar unit. It contains both agarose and agaropectin, which are polysaccharides made up of different sugar monomers.

(B) Fructose Inulin is a polysaccharide composed primarily of fructose units.

(B) Heparin Heparin is a glycosaminoglycan that does not contain uronic acid. Instead, it contains iduronic acid, which is an epimer of glucuronic acid, but the more specific point is that heparin's structure...

(D) Cornea Keratan sulfate is found in abundance in the cornea, where it plays a critical role in maintaining its transparency and function.

(B) 20 Amylopectin typically has a branch point approximately every 20 to 30 glucose units.

(A) N-acetyl glucosamine and D-glucuronic acid Hyaluronic acid is composed of repeating disaccharide units of N-acetyl glucosamine and D-glucuronic acid.

(C) Cellulose Cellulose is the most abundant carbohydrate found in nature. It is a primary component of the cell walls of plants.

(e) Fecal oral from human feces Cysticercosis in humans is caused by ingesting eggs of Taenia solium (the pork tapeworm) through fecal-oral transmission from human feces

(b) Optochin susceptibility test The Optochin susceptibility test is used to differentiate Streptococcus pneumoniae (which is optochin-sensitive) from viridans streptococci (which are optochin-resistant).

(c) Hyphae are darkly pigmented Dermatophytes typically do not have darkly pigmented hyphae. They are characterized by their preference for keratin-rich environments, their ability to infect both healthy...
