Detailed explanation-1: -Glycosidic bonds are cleaved by enzymes known as glycosidases. The three major disaccharides are sucrose, lactose, and maltose.
Detailed explanation-2: -Disaccharides are those sugars formed by linkage of two monosaccharide. Maltose, lactose, sucrose are the most common disaccharides. Maltose is made up of two units of glucose, lactose is made up of one unit of glucose and one unit of galactose. Sucrose is made up of one unit of glucose and one unit of fructose.
Detailed explanation-3: -The disaccharides differ from one another in their monosaccharide constituents and in the specific type of glycosidic linkage connecting them. There are three common disaccharides: maltose, lactose, and sucrose. All three are white crystalline solids at room temperature and are soluble in water.
Detailed explanation-4: -Lactose is a disaccharide derived from the condensation of galactose and glucose, which form a -1→4 glycosidic linkage. Its systematic name is -D-galactopyranosyl-(1→4)-D-glucose.
