Sugars containing 3-10 glucose units are termed as
-
Polysaccharides
-
Oligosaccharides
-
Disaccharides
-
Monosaccharides
C
Correct answer
Explanation
Disaccharides contain 3-10 glucose units. These sugars can be hydrolysed into molecules of monosaccharide by the action of enzymes. They may be considered as glycosides formed by the condensation of two molecules of covalently linked monosaccharide. The empirical formula of disaccharide is C12H22O11.
