the common reaction which is important in the breaking down of disaccharide into monosaccharide is known as hydrolysis.

Option (B)

Explanation:

  • Two monosaccharide are usually joined by using chemical bond to form disaccharides.
  • Here the bond is broken down during digestion of food by the amylases by the hydrolysis. Hydrolysis is is done in both acidic and basic medium. Due to hydrolysis two or more monosaccharides are formed by disaccharides or polysaccharide.
  • Hydrolysis reaction is very important in the digestion of of ingested polysaccharide or disaccharide food
