Which one of the following statements is wrong?
Sucrose is a disaccharide.
Cellulose is a polysaccharide.
Uracil is a pyrimidine.
Glycine is a sulphur containing amino acid.
To solve this problem, we need to analyze each statement to determine which one is incorrect. Let's examine each option:Option 1: Sucrose is a disaccharide. - Sucrose is indeed a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose. - Therefore, this statement is correct.Option 2: Cellulose is a polysaccharide. - Cellulose is a polysaccharide made up of glucose units linked by beta-1,4-glycosidic bonds. - Therefore, this statement is correct.Option 3: Uracil is a pyrimidine. - Uracil is one of the four nucleobases in the nucleic acid of RNA and is indeed a pyrimidine. - Therefore, this statement is correct.Option 4: Glycine is a sulphur containing amino acid. - Glycine is the simplest amino acid with the formula NHCHCOOH. - It does not contain sulphur; instead, it contains only carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen. - Therefore, this statement is incorrect.The incorrect statement is Option 4: Glycine is a sulphur containing amino acid.
