Why is hydrolysis an appropriate name for the reaction that breaks apart di- and polysaccharides into monosaccharides?
Hydrolysis means breaking a compound by adding water. In the case of di- and polysaccharides being broken down into monosaccharides, water molecules are added to the glycosidic bonds holding the sugar units together, causing them to break apart into smaller sugar units.
What is the hydrolysis of disaccharides?
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 produced when a polymer breaks apart?
Monomers.
What term identifies a reaction that breaks apart macromolecules?
Hydrolysis
What is the role in helicase enzyme in dnA replication?
(Apex) It breaks apart the bases.
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.

What is process of water breaking apart the lactose molecule?
In the process of water breaking apart the lactose molecule, water molecules (H2O) interact with the lactose molecule which is made up of glucose and galactose. The water molecule breaks the glycosidic bond between glucose and galactose by adding a hydroxyl group to one sugar and a hydrogen ion to the other, resulting in the formation of two separate sugar molecules.
Why is lactase called lactase?
It breaks down lactose, and -ase is a common ending of enzyme names coming, ultimately, from the term lysis, which means "to break apart". So it's a nearly perfect name.
Does lactose dissolve in water?
Yes, lactose does dissolve in water. Lactose is a water-soluble carbohydrate found in milk and dairy products. When mixed with water, lactose molecules break apart and disperse, allowing them to dissolve in the liquid.
