Q. Which of the following protein - sugar pair is present in milk

  • (A) Casein, Lactose
  • (B) Albumin, Glucose
  • (C) Ferritin, Maltose
  • (D) Casein, Sucrose

Explanation by: Admin

Milk contains casein as its primary protein and lactose as its main sugar.

  • Casein → A major milk protein that provides essential amino acids.
  • Lactose → A disaccharide sugar found in milk, made up of glucose and galactose.

Why are the other options incorrect?

  • (B) Albumin, Glucose → ❌ Albumin is found in blood, not milk. Milk sugar is lactose, not glucose.
  • (C) Ferritin, Maltose → ❌ Ferritin is an iron-storage protein, and maltose is not found in milk.
  • (D) Casein, Sucrose → ❌ Milk contains lactose, not sucrose.

Thus, the correct protein-sugar pair in milk is Casein and Lactose.
