A. First carbon atomB.Second carbon atomC.Third carbon atomD.Fourth carbon atom

Answer»

Correct answer is (D) Fourth carbon atom

Glucose and galactose are both simple structures made of a six-carbon ring. They are almost identical, but galactose differs slightly in the orientation of functional groups around the fourth carbon. Galactose has a higher melting point than glucose as a result of the structural differences.
