Question

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A): Sucrose is a disaccharide and a non-reducing sugar. Reason (R): Sucrose involves glycosidic linkage between C1 of β-glucose and C2 of α-fructose. Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below : (A) Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the true explanation of (A) (B) (A) is false but (R) is true. (C) (A) is true but (R) is false (D) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the true explanation of (A)

Surcrose is example of disaccharide non reducing sugar Assertion: correct Sucrose involves glycosidic linkage between C1 of α-D-glucose C 2 of β-D-fructose Reason: Incorrect

Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the true explanation of (A)

(A) is false but (R) is true.

(A) is true but (R) is false

Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the true explanation of (A)

Surcrose is example of disaccharide & non reducing sugar Assertion : correct Sucrose involves glycosidic linkage between C1​ of α−D-glucose C2​ of β−D-fructose Reason : Incorrect

Surcrose is example of disaccharide & non reducing sugar
Assertion : correct
Sucrose involves glycosidic linkage between $C_{1}$ of $α - D$ -glucose $C_{2}$ of $β - D$ -fructose
Reason : Incorrect
