Final answer:

A glycosidic linkage in carbohydrates is analogous to a peptide bond in proteins.

Step-by-step explanation:

A glycosidic linkage in carbohydrates is analogous to B) a peptide bond in proteins. Just like a glycosidic linkage joins two monosaccharides to form a disaccharide or polysaccharide, a peptide bond connects two amino acids to form a dipeptide or protein.
