Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R
Assertion : Two sugar units are joined by 1,2-glycosidic bond in sucralose.
Reason : Sucralose contains \(C_1\) -glucose and \(C_2\) - fructose glycosidic bond.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R
Assertion : Two sugar units are joined by 1,2-glycosidic bond in sucralose.
Reason : Sucralose contains \(C_1\) -glucose and \(C_2\) - fructose glycosidic bond.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
- If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
- If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
- If assertion is true but reason is false
- If both assertion and reason are false
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Answer (a) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
Assertion : Two sugar units are joined by 1,2-glycosidic bond in sucralose. (correct)
Reason : Sucralose contains \(C_1\) -glucose and \(C_2\) - fructose glycosidic bond. (True and also correct explanation)

Biomolecules
Biomolecules are the most essential organic molecules, which are involved in the maintenance and metabolic processes of living organisms. These non-living molecules are the actual foot-soldiers of the battle of sustenance of life.
There are four major classes of Biomolecules – Carbohydrates, Proteins, Nucleic acids and Lipids.
- Carbohydrates are chemically defined as polyhydroxy aldehydes or ketones or compounds which produce them on hydrolysis.
- Proteins are another class of indispensable biomolecules, which make up around 50per cent of the cellular dry weight. Proteins are polymers of amino acids arranged in the form of polypeptide chains. The structure of proteins is classified as primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary in some cases.
- Nucleic acids refer to the genetic material found in the cell that carries all the hereditary information from parents to progeny. There are two types of nucleic acids namely, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). The main function of nucleic acid is the transfer of genetic information and synthesis of proteins by processes known as translation and transcription.
- Lipids are organic substances that are insoluble in water, soluble in organic solvents, are related to fatty acids and are utilized by the living cell.
