Answer:

The answer is A : a water molecule at each bonding site.

Explanation:

Formation of polysaccharide is a condensation reaction i.e a molecule of water in produced every time two glucose molecule link together. Similarly formation of peptide bond between amino acids is also a condensation reaction. In fact because polysaccharide formation involves loss of several water molecules its easy to store condensed bulk like glycogen in animals and starch in plants compared to several monosaccharide glucose units.
