Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The formation of an acetal (or ketal) bond between two monosaccharides is called a glycosidic bond or glycosidic linkage. Therefore, disaccharides are sugars composed of two monosaccharide units that are joined by a carbon–oxygen-carbon linkage known as a glycosidic linkage.
