Aby hydrolysis
Bby dehydration synthesis
Cby replication
Dby transcription

Verified Answer :

Alkatoe

dehydration synthesis :) it means that monomers (like glucose or lactose) when bonded together release water molecules

Answer:

(b) by dehydration synthesis

Explanation:

Carbohydrate polymers are made of various monosaccharides bonded together by glycosidic bond. Formation of glycosidic bond between two or more monosaccharides is an example of dehydration synthesis bond formation is accompanied with release of one molecule of water.

For example: two glucose units are bonded together by glycosidic bond and one water molecule is released during bond formation.
