Answer:

a) Dehydration

b) water (H2O)

Explanation:

Polymers are large complex substances that arise from the joining of smaller simpler units called Monomers. A monomer is joined together by a covalent bond, to form a polymer molecule. However, this process usually accompanies the loss of a water molecule due to the hydrogen (H+) and hydroxyll (OH-) ions that is contributed by each monomer unit. Hence, this process is called a DEHYDRATION REACTION.

For example, glucose moleculea as monomer units combine together in a dehydration reaction to form larger polymers such as starch, glucose etc.

Cellular respiration is a series of metabolic reactions and processes that occur within the cells of an organism, converting chemical energy from nutrients to adenosine triphosphate and releasing waste products.

Cell respiration is a series of metabolic reactions and processes that occur within the cells of an organism to convert chemical energy from nutrients to adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and release waste products.

Cell respiration is the process by which organisms use oxygen to break down food molecules to produce chemical energy for cell function. Cellular respiration occurs not only in animal, plant, and fungal cells but also in algae and other protists.
