It's Wrong!
Disaccharides are carbohydrates made up of two sugar units. Examples of disaccharides include sucrose, lactose, and maltose. These molecules are formed when two monosaccharides are joined together through a dehydration synthesis reaction, resulting in the formation of a glycosidic bond. Disaccharides are a type of sugar that provides energy to the body and is commonly found in foods such as fruits, vegetables, and grains.
