When two monosaccharides combine in a dehydration reaction they form
A
amino acids
B
disaccharides
C
glycogen
D
cellulose
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Disaccharides (di-= “two”) form when two monosaccharides join together via a dehydration reaction, also known as a condensation reaction or dehydration synthesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Disaccharides form when two monosaccharides undergo a dehydration reaction (a condensation reaction); they are held together by a covalent bond. Sucrose (table sugar) is the most common disaccharide, which is composed of the monomers glucose and fructose.

Detailed explanation-3: -Disaccharides are formed when a dehydration reaction occurs between two monosaccharides. Notice that the two monosaccharide units are joined by an ether linkage. One of the most common disaccharides is sucrose, which is composed of one glucose and one fructose molecule.

Detailed explanation-4: -Disaccharides (di-= “two”) form when two monosaccharides undergo a dehydration reaction (also known as a condensation reaction or dehydration synthesis).

Detailed explanation-5: -A disaccharide (also called a double sugar or biose) is the sugar formed when two monosaccharides are joined by glycosidic linkage. Like monosaccharides, disaccharides are simple sugars soluble in water. Three common examples are sucrose, lactose, and maltose.
