Monomers are not joined together by the process of hydrolysis. Dehydration synthesis, or condensation reaction is the process of chemically joining monomers.

What is produced by controlled hydrolysis of proteins?
Hydrolysis is a reaction by which a larger compound is broken down (lysed) into smaller constituents. Protein hydrolysis will result in monomers of amino acids.
What reaction forms monomers?
Hydrolysis reactions forms monomers.
What do monomers and polymers have to do with photosynthesis?
Monomers come together to form polymers through dehydration condensation and polymers split apart from monomers through hydrolysis.
Condensation polymers can be broken down into their monomers by what kind of reaction?
HYDROLYSIS
How are dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis related?
They are (generally) opposite reactions. Dehydration (condensation) reactions build polymers from monomers by removing water while hydrolysis reactions break polymers into monomers by adding water.

What reaction forms monomers?
Hydrolysis reactions forms monomers.
What type of chemical reaction occurs when polymers are broken apart by water?
Hydrolysis. Polymers are broken down into monomers in a process known as hydrolysis
What do monomers do after they break down through hydrolysis?
They become glucose monomers.
What is the term for the reaction that separates monomers?
Hydrolysis
How are polymers broken-down to monomers?
It certainly depends on what type of polymer you are speaking. For peptide polymers the reaction for monomerization is hydrolysis. This is the addition of water in combination with the cleavage of the peptide bond.
What is the process in which polymers are broken down into simpler monomers?
hydrolysis
What do monomers and polymers have to do with photosynthesis?
Monomers come together to form polymers through dehydration condensation and polymers split apart from monomers through hydrolysis.

Does breaking monomer cause polymers?
No. Monomers are the building blocks of Polymers. When a Polymer is broken (by Hydrolysis) you get monomers or a monomer and a shorter ploymer.
What type of reaction monomers must undergo to form cellulose?
This reaction is called polymerization.
