B. Glycosidic linkages formed is acetal linkages.

Solution:

Glycosidic linkage involves anomeric carbon of both monosaccharides.

The anomeric carbon of glucose (C1) and the anomeric carbon of fructose (C2) are the carbons that
will react to form the glycosidic bond in a non-reducing disaccharide. This is because when these
two specific carbons are linked neither sugar can open up to form a free aldehyde or ketone group,
which is required for reducing properties.
→ Hence X is glucose & Y is tructose.
→ ∴ C1 of X and C2 of Y is involved in glycosidic linakge.
The correct option is (4)

51) |A| ≠ 0
For (P) : A ≠ I2

So, A = or or or or
|A| can be –1 or 1
So (P) is false.
For (Q); |A| = 1
A= or or
⇒ tr(A) = 2
⇒ Q is true

52) ATA = Ι
⇒ a2 + b2 + c2 = 1
and ab + bc + ca = 0
Now, (a + b + c)2 = 1
⇒ a+b+c=±1
So, a3 + b3 + c3 – 3abc
= (a + b + c)(a2 + b2 + c2 – ab – bc – ca)
= ± 1 (1 – 0) = ± 1
⇒ 3 abc = 2 ± 1 = 3, 1
