Question

a) Names of some carbohydrates, their properties and structural patterns are given below. Match them properly.

Glucose	Disaccharide	D-1,4 link
Sucrose	Reducing	Galactoxide
Lactose	Insoluble (in water)	1, 6- linkage
Amylopectin	Non - reducing	Fructoxide
	Terisaccharide	Anomers present
	Mono saccharide	2- glucose units linked

b) Proteins have polypeptide bonds. What are polypeptides?

Answer 1

a) Glucose – monosaccharide – Anomers present Sucrose – Disaccharide – Fructoxide Lactose – Reducing -1,4 link Amylopectin – Insoluble in water -1,6 link

b) When the number of amino acid units in a protein is more than ten, then the products are called polypeptides.
