Vedclass · Answer

(D) Hydrolysis is a chemical process in which a molecule of water is added to a substance to break its chemical bonds.$1$. Ester bonds (found in lipids) are broken down by hydrolysis into fatty acids and glycerol.$2$. Peptide bonds (found in proteins) are broken down by hydrolysis into amino acids.$3$. Glycosidic bonds (found in carbohydrates/polysaccharides) are broken down by hydrolysis into monosaccharides.Since all these bonds are broken through the addition of water,the correct answer is 'All of the above'.
