Question

22 multiple choice 1 point during digestion, how are carbohydrates broken down? through dehydration synthesis through oxidation through hydrolysis through condensation

Explanation:

Carbohydrates are polymers that are broken down into monomers during digestion. Hydrolysis is the process that uses water to break the bonds in polymers, converting them into smaller units. Dehydration synthesis and condensation are the opposite processes of building polymers. Oxidation is a different type of chemical - reaction not related to the breakdown of carbohydrates in this context.

Answer:

C. Through hydrolysis
