this is because dehydration is the removal of WATER while hydrolysis is the addition of water.
"Dehydration is a chemical reaction in which two molecules are joined covalently with the removal of an -OH (hydroxyl group) from one molecule and an -H atom from the other molecule to form H2O (water). This process is also called condensation."

"Whereas. hydrolysis is a chemical reaction in which a macromolecule is split into smaller molecules by reaction with water. In Biology, most hydrolysis reactions involve the splitting of polymers into monomers."
Biological Science: The Cell, Genetics and Development by Scott Freeman.
A good example of hydrolysis would be the break down of the foods we eat into smaller units (monomers) more readily usable by our cells to build new macromolecules (polymers) such as proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and lipids.
What else can I help you with?
When two sugars are combined a water molecule is lost This process is called?
Dehydration Synthesis, also called a condensation reaction, a dehydration reaction or just condensation.
How can be dehydration synthesis reversed?
In chemistry, condensation reactions are when covalent bonds are formed between molecules and a water molecule is generated as a byproduct. The reverse of this process is hydrolysis, whereby water is consumed in order to cleave a covalent bond.
How do you reverse dehydration synthesis?
Dehydration synthesis cannot be reversed directly. To break down the molecules formed during dehydration synthesis, a hydrolysis reaction is required. This involves adding water to break the bonds between the molecules and return them to their original components.
Process by which sugar molecules can be bonded together?
Sugar molecules can be bonded together through a process called dehydration synthesis, where a water molecule is removed to form a glycosidic bond between the molecules. This process results in the formation of a disaccharide or polysaccharide.
Do dehydration reactions require ATP?
Dehydration reactions typically do not require ATP because they involve the removal of water molecules to form new bonds. However, some dehydration reactions that involve the synthesis of complex molecules may require ATP as an energy source for the process.
A dehydration reaction can also be called?
A dehydration reaction can be (and often is) called dehydration synthesis, as the process involves synthesizing large compounds from smaller ones by removing the water from them (hence the dehydra- )
What is the process of conversion of glucose units into starch called?
Dehydration synthesis
How are dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis reactions related to monomers and polymers?
Yes! Dehydration is the combining of two or more molecules while producing water. Hydrolysis is the addition of water to a molecule to split it up into smaller molecules. Hydrolysis is to Degradation as Dehydration is to Synthesis. Matter of fact, it is usually called Dehydration Synthesis!
What kind of reaction will join two monosaccharides to form a disaccharide and join disaccharides to form polysaccharides?
The reaction is called "Dehydration Synthesis".
What type of chemical reaction occurs when polymer apart by water?
Dehydration synthesis, also called condensation, is the type of reaction that builds polymers by removing water.
When two sugars are combined a water molecule is lost This process is called?
Dehydration Synthesis, also called a condensation reaction, a dehydration reaction or just condensation.
Are proteins formed by dehydration synthesis?
No; they are formed by translation. Carbohydrates are formed by dehydration synthesis.
What is removed in dehydration synthesis What kind of bond is made by dehydration synthesis How do you break apart this bond?
Water is removed during dehydration synthesis. A covalent bond is produced by dehydration synthesis. Hydrolysis, the addition of water, can break apart this bond.
What is it called when the synthesis where water is removed and two organic compounds bond together?
condensation/dehydration :)
What type of molecule is removed during dehydration synthesis?
Water molecule is removed during dehydration synthesis.
Write the dehydration synthesis equation for lactose and melibiose in words?
The dehydration synthesis equation for lactose is: glucose + galactose -> lactose + water. The dehydration synthesis equation for melibiose is: glucose + galactose -> melibiose + water.
What is the name of the process that creates macromolecules by removing water?
The process is called dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction. It involves the removal of a water molecule to link monomers together to form a larger macromolecule.
