Is lactase breaking down lactose dehydration or hydrolosis?
lactase catalyses hydrolysis of lactose.
What chemical process changes a monosaccharide into a disaccharide?
Hydrolysis - Breaking down complex molecules by the chemical addition of water
Table sugar breaking down into glucose and fructose is an example of what?
Hydrolysis, which is a type of chemical decomposition in which a compound is split into other compounds by reacting with water. Refer to the related links below that illustrates the hydrolysis of sucrose.
The breakdown of polymer involves... a. hydrolysis b. a condensation reaction c. the breaking down of hydrogen bonds d. the breaking of ionic bonds?
a. hydrolysis
Disaccharides are converted into monosaccharides by the process of?
Hydrolysis is the process that breaks down polysaccharides into simpler sugars.
Is lactase breaking down lactose dehydration or hydrolosis?
lactase catalyses hydrolysis of lactose.
When glycogen is formed from monosaccharides it occurs by a process called hydrolysis?
No. The word hydrolysis has -lysis which means to break down. But if you are making glycogen you are building up. In this case dehydration occurs which is the opposite of hydrolysis (breaking down using water). Water is a by product in dehydration.

Hydrolysis, which is a type of chemical decomposition in which a compound is split into other compounds by reacting with water. Refer to the related links below that illustrates the hydrolysis of sucrose.
How are dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis reactions related?
dehydration synthesis is when water is formed when combining two molecules. hydrolysis is adding water to make one molecule into two separate molecules.
How do you break down a polysaccharide?
Hydrolysis breaks polysaccharides into monosaccharides, during what is called saccharification. This process is the cleavage of chemical bonds by the addition of water.
The breakdown of polymer involves... a. hydrolysis b. a condensation reaction c. the breaking down of hydrogen bonds d. the breaking of ionic bonds?
a. hydrolysis
What do monomers do after they break down through hydrolysis?
They become glucose monomers.
Which organelle in a cell uses oxygen when breaking down glucose?
Mitochondria in the cell use oxygen when breaking down glucose.
Breaking down polysaccharides occurs through a process called what?
Hydrolysis is the process that breaks down polysaccharides into simpler sugars.
Is cellular respiration a hydrolysis reaction?
Respiration is a catabolic reaction - it breaks down a complex molecule (glucose) and forms simpler molecules (carbon dioxide and water). Respiration is neither a dehydration synthesis nor a hydrolysis because dehydration synthesis means formation of a molecule by removal of water molecule from two reactants . On the other hand hydrolysis involves addition of water molecule after breakage of water , nothing of these two happens in respiration .
Disaccharides are converted into monosaccharides by the process of?
Hydrolysis is the process that breaks down polysaccharides into simpler sugars.
