Question #11
**Question 11**

Consider the sugars in the figure. Which is (are) *true* for these carbohydrates?

[Diagram of three sugars labeled A, B, and C. Each structure shows multiple hydroxyl groups (OH) and hydrogen atoms (H) attached to a carbon backbone. The sugar structures are complex and require visualization for detailed understanding.]

(i) Sugars "A" and "C" are ketopentose  
(ii) Sugars "A" and "B" are epimers  
(iii) Sugars "B" and "C" are epimers  
(iv) Sugars "A" and "C" are epimers  
(v) Sugar "B" represents the D-isomeric form

- o iv only
- o ii and v
- o i and ii
- o i, iii and v

**Question 12**

Which of the following statements about carbohydrate is (are) *correct*?

(i) Galactose is an example of an aldohexose

*Note:* Select the correct options based on the sugar structures and properties. Consider the position of hydroxyl groups and isomeric forms to determine epimeric relationships and isomerism.
