Answer:

c.The addition of a water molecule breaks a bond between sugar mono-mers.

Explanation:

Hydrolysis refers to reaction with water. When water molecules are added to carbohydrates, the bonds between the sugar monomers are broken. This is the chemical reaction known as hydrolysis reaction.

Generally, since carbohydrates are polymers we can say that hydrolysis reactions result in the breakdown of carbohydrate polymers into sugar monomers by using water molecules

Answer:

The correct answer is - tight junctions.

Explanation:

Tight junctions are one of the cell-cell junctions that make a barrier to the passage of material which is a present in epithelia. This barrier is impermeable to most of the materials with soluble molecules. This barrier is made up of the occludin and claudin proteins.
