Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Find the appropriate double sugars.They are three types of disaccharides:Sucrose ( made up of ____ and ____ ), maltose (2 ____ molecules), and lactose ( ____ and ____ )
A
Sucrose (made up of glucose and fructose), maltose (glucose molecules), and lactose (glucose and galactose)
B
Sucrose (made up of 2 glucose molecules), maltose (glucose and fructose), and lactose (fructose and galactose)
C
Sucrose (made up of 2 glucose molecules), maltose ( 2 galactose molecules), and lactose (glucose and fructose)
D
Sucrose (made up of glucose and fructose), maltose (made up of glucose and galactose), and lactose (2 glucose molecules)
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A disaccharide (also called a double sugar ) is the sugar formed when two monosaccharides (simple sugars) are joined by glycosidic linkage. Like monosaccharides, disaccharides are soluble in water. Three common examples are sucrose, lactose, and maltose.

Detailed explanation-2: -The three major disaccharides are sucrose, lactose, and maltose.

Detailed explanation-3: -Disaccharides are a major source of energy in the diet and are typically thought of as the following three major compounds: sucrose, lactose, and maltose.

Detailed explanation-4: -Disaccharides or double sugars “Di” means two. Disaccharides are formed when two monosaccharides combine. Three disaccharides common in the diet are maltose, sucrose and lactose.
