Review the specific types of monosaccharides and glycosidic bonds that are involved in these disaccharides. Remember that disaccharides are formed upon dehydration synthesis of two monosaccharides.

Maltose is composed of two glucose monomers with an1-4 linkage.

Cellobiose is composed of two glucose monomers with a1-4 linkage.

Sucrose is composed of one glucose monomer and one fructose monomer with an1-2 linkage.

Lactose is composed of one galactose monomer and one glucose monomer with a1-4 linkage.

Maltose, which is made up of two glucose monomers joined by an alpha-1,4 linkage, is the correct answer. On the other hand, lactose is made up of one glucose monomer and one galactose monomer, and sucrose is made up of one glucose monomer and one fructose monomer.

Fructose is a monosaccharide; therefore, it is only made up of one type of carbohydrate. Disaccharides are made up of two types of monosaccharides. For example, lactose is made up of galactose and glucose whereas sucrose is made up of glucose and fructose. Polysaccharides are made up of multiple units of monosaccaharides.

Lactose is a disaccharide that needs to be broken down to its monosaccharide components in the gut (so that it can be absorbed). Lactose is made up of galactose and glucose monosaccharide units. An enzyme called lactase, found on the intestinal walls, is used to break down lactose to galactose and glucose. A person with lactose intolerance lacks lactase and, therefore, cannot break down lactose to its components. This leads to malabsorption of lactose. However, there is no problem with galactose and glucose absorption. This means that a patient with lactose intolerance can still digest galactose and glucose if given separately.

As the question states, hypoglycemia is characterized by low levels of glucose in the blood. To bring the glucose levels back to normal, one can ingest foods that contain high amounts of glucose. To solve this question we need to decide which of the stated options can be broken down to glucose. Lactose is a disaccharide that is made up of glucose and galactose. An enzyme, called lactase, breaks down lactose to its components, which can then be absorbed by the intestinal cells; therefore, ingesting glucose will increase glucose levels in the blood. Similarly, sucrose is a disaccharide made up of fructose and glucose; therefore, ingesting sucrose will also increase glucose levels in the blood.

Galactose is a monosaccharide and, therefore, cannot be broken down to any further. It is absorbed as galactose by the intestinal cells. This will not increase the concentration of glucose in the blood.

Maltose, made from the breakdown of starch, contains a 1 to 4 alpha linkage, and cellobiose, made from the breakdown of cellulose, contains a 1 to 4 beta linkage. Both are disaccharides with different shapes and different properties.

To answer this question, we'll need to have some background information on each of the sugars shown in the answer choices.

A glycosidic bond between glucose and galactose will produce the disaccharide lactose, which is thus the correct answer.

Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose. Maltose is also a disaccharide composed of two glucose molecules. Moreover, fructose and xylose are monosaccharides.
