Which of the following is known as milk sugar? |
Sucrose Lactose Maltose Glucose |
Lactose |
The correct answer is option 2. Lactose. Lactose is sometimes referred to as “milk sugar” because it is only found naturally in the milk of mammals—including cows, goats and humans. Cheese and yogurt are made from milk from cows and goats, but not all milk products have the same proportion of lactose. |
