A  trisaccharide was isolated from a new species of red algae. The sample was hydrolyzed and monosaccharide units were analyzed in different colorimetric tests. Based on the data below, what are the identity of monosaccharide A, B, and C?




 

   

A= fructose, B=mannose, C=xylose

   

A= xylose, B=mannose, C= fructose

   

A = mannose, B= fructose, C=xylose

   

A= xylose, B= fructose, C=galactose

   

A=galactose, B= fructose, C=xylose

   

A=xylose, B= fructose, C=mannose

   

A= fructose, B= xylose, C=galactose

   

A=galactose, B=xylose, C=fructose
