it takes place by the breaking apart of water. A water is broken apart to for a H- and an OH- which then, with the help of enzymes, pulls the 2 monosaccharides apart and gives each a part of the water to make them stable.

What is the process whereby disaccharides and polysaccharides can be disassembled into simpler sugars by the addition of a water molecule?
Hydrolysis.
The majority of hydrolysis of disaccharides occurs by the actions of enzymes found?
In the brush border of the small intestine
Disaccharides are converted into monosaccharides by the process of?
Hydrolysis is the process that breaks down polysaccharides into simpler sugars.
What happens when you heat polysaccharides?
If a polysaccharide is heated in a strong acid medium, the covalent glycosid bonds break through hydrolysis, creating disaccharides. Later on the reaction continues with the disaccharides, ending the reaction with nothing but monosacharides (Glucose, fructose etc.)
Where is disaccharidases produced?
Disaccharidase is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of disaccharides. It is produced in the small intestine and helps to digest starches and other carbohydrates.
What is the process by which disaccharides and polysaccharides can be broken apart?
Disaccharides are broken down by hydrolysis, which is the addition of water molecule, to turn into two monosaccharides
Process by which disaccharides and polysaccharides can be broken apart?
Hydrolysis
What is the role of hydrolysis in the relationships between monosaccharides disaccharides and polyssacharides?
Hydrolysis involes splitting a molecule into smaller fragments with the addition of water. During the process, -H and -OH are added to these smaller fragments. The disaccharides (i.e. two sugars) are split into two monosaccharides (i.e. single sugars). The polysaccharides (i.e. multiple sugars) are spilt into disaccharides. This process of hydrolysis depends on enzyme control in organisms.

What is the process whereby disaccharides and polysaccharides can be disassembled into simpler sugars by the addition of a water molecule?
Hydrolysis.
Disaccharides are broken down into their component monosaccharides by.?
The decomposition of any nutrient is called hydrolysis, in which a molecule of water is broken and "caps" the ends of the two monomers. The opposite of hydrolysis is called a condensation (or dehydration) reaction.
Disaccharides are converted into monosaccharides by the process of?
Hydrolysis is the process that breaks down polysaccharides into simpler sugars.
Is the process whereby disaccharides and polysaccharides can be disassembled into simpler sugars by the addition of a water molecule?
Hydrolysis A. for plato.

What are the end product of the hydrolysis of a polysaccharide?
Monosacharides

Visual obsevation of barfoed's test?
A brick-red precipitate indicates a reducing monosaccharide. Some hydrolysis of disaccharides may lead to trace precipitates. Nat:)
