Answer 1

Answer:

B. Glucose and glucose

Also called malt, maltose is a disaccharide made up of two alpha D glucose units. An alpha 1,4 glycosidic bond is formed between the two units of glucose. During the process of digestion, maltose is broken down into two glucose molecules by the enzymes present in the lining of the small intestine. These simple molecules are absorbed by the body.
