Students draw the condensation reaction linking glucose monomers. Provide: template of two glucose molecules in ring form (Haworth or simplified). Prompts: 1) Circle the two OH groups that will react (one from each glucose unit). 2) Draw a line between them = glycosidic bond. 3) Show the H₂O molecul
