In hydrolysis
A
Water is added to break bonds between monomers
B
Water is removed to form bonds between monomers
C
Water is added to form bonds between monomers
D
Water is removed to break bonds between monomers
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hydrolysis reactions use water to breakdown polymers into monomers and is the opposite of dehydration synthesis, which forms water when synthesizing a polymer from monomers. Hydrolysis reactions break bonds and release energy.

Detailed explanation-2: -3.6. Hydrolysis involves the reaction of an organic chemical with water to form two or more new substances and usually means the cleavage of chemical bonds by the addition of water.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hydrolysis is the process that breaks bonds between two molecules by the addition of water and disassembles polymers to monomers. Hydrolysis reaction results in the collapse of polymers into monomers by utilizing a water molecule as well as an enzymatic catalyst.

Detailed explanation-4: -Hydrolysis reactions use up water molecules to break bonds. In this example, a water molecule (HOH) is used to supply an OH to one side of the breaking bond and an H to the other. Sucrase is one of the many digestive enzymes released into the small intestine.

Detailed explanation-5: -A hydrolysis reaction involves adding a water molecule in order to break the bond between the monomers. The monomers can then be recycled to form new polymers.
