The bond that forms between two glucose molecules are called

1. Peptide bonds

2. Ester bonds

3. Phosphodiester bonds

4. Glycosidic bonds

5. Hydrogen bonds

Glycosidic Bonds

Explanation:

Glycosidic Bonds are a type of covelant bond that form between two or more 5 carbon sugar macro-molecules (like glucose). Hydrogen bonds are an attraction between hydrogen atoms, not a real sharing or trading of electrons, as seen with ionic and covelant bonds, while they are essestial to life in water, they generally do not have a strong effect in the building of macromolecules. Therefore, that is incorrect. Phosphodiester, ester, and peptide bonds all occur between different macro-molecules, none of which include glucose (5 carbon sugar). Therefore, the answer is #4.
