      A Fructose Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Glucose Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Mannose Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Sucrose Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Sucrose is a non-reducing sugar because its anomeric carbons are involved in a glycosidic bond and cannot open to form a free aldehyde or ketone group. Fructose, glucose, and mannose are reducing sugars.
