|
monomers, hydrolysis
|
|
|
monomers, dehydration synthesis
|
|
|
amino acids, hydrolysis
|

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Polymers are broken down into monomers via hydrolysis reactions, in which a bond is broken, or lysed, by addition of a water molecule.
Detailed explanation-2: -2: In the hydrolysis reaction shown here, the disaccharide maltose is broken down to form two glucose monomers with the addition of a water molecule.
Detailed explanation-3: -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.
Detailed explanation-4: -The correct answer: Monomers are joined together by condensation and broken down by hydrolysis. The formation of the polymer takes place with the help of condensation reaction on the monomers.
