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 $$\beta$$-glucose and C2 of $$\alpha$$-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)
Explanation
Sucrose is example of disaccharide & non reducing sugar
Assertion : Correct
