Welcome back. Everyone identify a disaccharide that is commonly used in the brewing industry to enhance the flavor and alcohol content of beer. Now, we're going for answer choices. Let's begin with. Option D it states starch according to the problem, we're looking at a disaccharide and we have to recall that a starch is a poly sac ride, right? So essentially it is not a dissect ride. Similarly, option C states galactose and galactose is a monos seite, not a dissect, right? So we have easily eliminated two options. Let's consider option B now lactose is actually a dissect, right? So it meets our criterion, but it is not used in the brewing industry to enhance the flavor and alcohol content. Specifically, lactose is found in milk, that's what we want to recall, right? So it's not the correct option. And this leaves us with option A maltose, which is indeed a disaccharide and it is used to enhance the flavor and alcohol content of beer. So let's label our answer for this problem. The correct answer choices. A maltos. Thank you for watching
