The correct Answer is:
To determine the incorrect statement among the given options, we will analyze each statement regarding glycosidic linkages in the biomolecules mentioned. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Option 1: Cellulose and amylose have 1,4 glycosidic linkage.** - **Analysis:** - Cellulose is a polysaccharide composed of beta-D-glucose units linked by 1,4-glycosidic bonds. - Amylose, a component of starch, is made up of alpha-D-glucose units also linked by 1,4-glycosidic bonds. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **correct**. 2. **Option 2: Lactose contains beta-D-galactose and beta-D-glucose.** - **Analysis:** - Lactose is a disaccharide composed of one beta-D-galactose and one beta-D-glucose unit. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **correct**. 3. **Option 3: Maltose and lactose have 1,4-glycosidic linkage.** - **Analysis:** - Maltose is a disaccharide made of two alpha-D-glucose units linked by a 1,4-glycosidic bond. - Lactose, as previously mentioned, is made of beta-D-galactose and beta-D-glucose, also linked by a 1,4-glycosidic bond. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **correct**. 4. **Option 4: Sucrose and amylose have 1,2-glycosidic linkage.** - **Analysis:** - Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose linked by a 1,2-glycosidic bond. - Amylose, as established, has a 1,4-glycosidic linkage. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **incorrect**. ### Final Answer: The incorrect statement is **Option 4: Sucrose and amylose have 1,2-glycosidic linkage.** ---

To determine the incorrect statement among the given options, we will analyze each statement regarding glycosidic linkages in the biomolecules mentioned. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Option 1: Cellulose and amylose have 1,4 glycosidic linkage.** - **Analysis:** - Cellulose is a polysaccharide composed of beta-D-glucose units linked by 1,4-glycosidic bonds. - Amylose, a component of starch, is made up of alpha-D-glucose units also linked by 1,4-glycosidic bonds. ...
