Explanation:

Sucrose is a disaccharide (a type of oligosaccharide) formed by the condensation of one glucose molecule and one fructose molecule. Starch and glycogen are polysaccharides, deoxyribose and ribose are monosaccharides (pentoses), maltose is a disaccharide of two glucose units, and the option with two glucoses is incorrect for sucrose's composition.

Answer:

C. glucose and fructose
