glycosidic linkage
When glucose and fructose are bonded together, they form a disaccharide called sucrose, which is commonly known as table sugar. Sucrose is made up of one molecule of glucose and one molecule of fructose joined together by a glycosidic linkage.
Sucrose is a disaccharide comprised of glucose and fructose. While both glucose and fructose have double bonds, sucrose does not.
sucrose is a disaccharide of glucose and fructose
Sucrose (table sugar) is 100% sugar, although it is composed of two separate sugars. Glucose and fructose molecules, are chemically joined to form sucrose molecules.
The dietary disaccharides include sucrose (glucose + fructose), lactose (glucose + galactose), and maltose (glucose + glucose). These are composed of two simple sugar units joined together.
Glycosidic Linkage
Yes, sucrose is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose units joined together. This bond forms through a condensation reaction between the two monosaccharides, resulting in the formation of a glycosidic bond. Sucrose is commonly known as table sugar and is found naturally in fruits and plants.

Monosaccharides fructose and glucose make up the disaccharide sucrose.
Glucose and fructose combine to form sucrose, which is a disaccharide composed of one glucose molecule and one fructose molecule joined together by a glycosidic bond.
lactose
Sucrose (table sugar) is 100% sugar, although it is composed of two separate sugars. Glucose and fructose molecules, are chemically joined to form sucrose molecules.
Fructose and glucose are joined by their glycosidic bond in such a way as to prevent the glucose isomerizing to aldehyde, or the fructose to alpha-hydroxy-ketone form. This stops it reacting to Benidict's reagent. However sucrose indirectly produces a positive result with Benedict's reagent if heated with dilute hydrochloric acid prior to the test, although after this treatment it is no longer sucrose. ;-)
When two single sugars are joined together, they form a disaccharide. Examples include sucrose (glucose + fructose), lactose (glucose + galactose), and maltose (glucose + glucose).
