Sample Questions

1multiple correct

Identify the reducing sugars from the following options:

Show answer

Glucose, Fructose, Maltose

Reducing sugars contain free anomeric carbon that can reduce Benedict's or Fehling's reagent. Glucose, fructose, and maltose are reducing sugars, while sucrose is non-reducing as both anomeric carbons are involved in glycosidic linkage.

2multiple correct

Identify the purine bases from the following:

Show answer

Adenine, Guanine

Purine bases have double ring structure. Adenine and Guanine are purines. Cytosine, Thymine, and Uracil are pyrimidines with single ring structure.

3multiple choice

Which amino acid does not have a chiral carbon?

Show answer

Glycine

Glycine has the structure NH₂-CH₂-COOH where the α-carbon has two hydrogen atoms, making it achiral. All other amino acids have chiral α-carbons.

4multiple choice

The hydrolysis of sucrose gives:

Show answer

Glucose + Fructose

Sucrose on hydrolysis with dilute acid or invertase enzyme gives equimolar mixture of D-glucose and D-fructose. This process is called inversion of sucrose.
