Dehydration.
Because the atoms removed from the monomers combine to form water.
Water. It's a condensation reaction
A disaccharide is formed when two monosaccharides are joined together by a reaction known as a dehydration, or condensation, synthesis. In this type of reaction water is removed, thus the name "dehydration". A new molecule is formed or "synthesized" from the two previously separate ones.
dehydration synthesis involves the removal of water which is favorable because water is a samll stable molecule. Hydrogen and Hydroxyl make water so these are the species removed.
A hydrolysis reaction. Water is added. Dehydration synthesis is when two water molecules join together. Hydrolysis is the separation of two water molecules.
Hydrolysis converts polymers to monomers by adding H2O between each monomer. In dehydration synthesis, the opposite occurs. As the name implies, water is removed in order to bond the monomers.
Because the atoms removed from the monomers combine to form water.
In most biological polymers, it is water. This is called dehydration synthesis

Dehydradtion reactions cause cells to make polymers from monomers.
The chemical process by which a molecule of water is removed from the reactants to join the reactants together. Dehydration synthesis takes place when the monomers of organic compounds join together by a chemical reaction to make polymers. Hydrolysis its the opposite reaction of breaking up polymers and is accomplished also by chemical reaction.

Monosaccharides are combined to make disaccharides and polysaccharides through dehydration synthesis, which is an anabolic reaction that requires energy to build the bonds, and water is removed from the bonds and released into the environment.
Two monomers to a dimer - this is a condensation reaction that involves the combining of -OH from the [enzymatically specific] one and the +H from the other to form H2O.
A molecule of water is removed with the binding of two monomers. For this reason, it is called a dehydration reaction.
