etymology
Disaccharides are formed by a dehydration reaction (condensation) between two monosaccharides, resulting in the formation of a glycosidic bond. This process involves the removal of a water molecule to join the two monosaccharides together. Common examples of disaccharides include sucrose, lactose, and maltose.
Disaccharides are converted into monosaccharides by the process of hydrolysis. In this process, a water molecule is used to break the glycosidic bond that holds the two sugar molecules together, resulting in the formation of two monosaccharides.
Hydrolysis
dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction
Disaccharides are broken down by hydrolysis, which is the addition of water molecule, to turn into two monosaccharides
Formation of polysaccharides is a process of polymerization.
Hydrolysis.
Disaccharides are not mixtures.

The primary function of disaccharides is as a nutritional source of monosaccharides. Many of the sugars found in foodstuffs are disaccharides.
