b

Correct option is B

Glycine is not a sulphur containing amino acid. The sulphur containing amino acids are cysteine and methionine. Uracil is a pyrimidine. Other examples of pyrimidines are Thymine and cytosine. Glucose and fructose combine to produce fructose. Therefore, it is a disaccharide.Cellulose is a polymeric polysaccharide consisting of only one type of monosaccharide i.e., glucose.
