Answer:

(D). Disaccharide.

Step-by-step explanation:

A disaccharide can be defined as a molecule, made up of two monosaccharides. To form a disaccharide, two monosaccharides join together with the help of an O-glycosodic bond between them.

Sucrose is an example of disaccharide, which is made up by joining of fructose and glucose molecules.
