Answer:

by the formation of glycosidic bond between simple sugars/monosaccharides.

Explanation:

A polymer is generally considered a chemical substance built from small similar units of chemicals.

Carbohydrate polymers such as starch and cellulose are formed by polymerization reaction involving simple sugars or monosaccharides.

<em>During polymerization process, energy is used to form a glycosidic linkage between monosaccharide molecules. The linkage occur through a dehydration reaction between two simple sugars leading to the elimination of water.</em>
