MCQ
Polysaccharides have .............. linkage ?
- ✓Glycosidic
- BPeptide
- CAnomeric
- DPolymorphic
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
Glycosidic
a
In polysaccharides, the linkage connecting monosaccharides is called glycoside (glycosidic linkage). Glycosidic linkage is the covalent bond between two or more monosaccharides to form a polysaccharide. It is formed between the hemiacetal or hemiketal group of a saccharide (or a molecule derived from a saccharide) and the hydroxyl group of some compound such as alcohol. A substance containing a glycosidic bond is a glycoside.
