C. On the basis of linkage of sugar molecule with the aglycon a) O- Glycosides: here the sugar is combined with the alcoholic or phenolic hydroxyl group of the aglycone.

b) N- Glycosides: In these glycosides the amino group (-NH2 / -NH-) is condensed with the sugar, e.g. nucleosides, coenzyme, etc.

d) C- Glycosides: Condensation of a sugar directly to a carbon atom of the aglycone gives c-glycosides, e.g. aloin, chrysaloin, etc.

An acetal is a molecule with two single bonded oxygen attached to the same carbon atom. Hemiacetals and hemiketals are compounds derived from aldehyde and ketones respectively. These compounds are formed by formal addition of an alcohol to the carbonyl group.
