The non-reducing sugar sucrose is most commonly translocated in the phloem rather than reducing sugar. Why?

 a.) because they are less reactive than their reducing counterparts

 b.) because sucrose contains more energy than a monosaccharides

 c.) because the ketone or aldehyde group is reduced to an alcohol or combined with a similar group on another sugar so as not to be oxidized

 Which one of the following statements is true about translocation of non-reducing sugar?

There are two proteins A and B to be visualized under fluorescence microscopy. Both of them are excited with same wavelength of light but A emits longer wavelength. Hence we can conclude that 

1. A is denser molecule than B

2. B is denser molecule than A

3. A is lighter molecule than B

4. B is lighter molecule than A
