Answer 1

### Part A
Another name for a condensation reaction is **dehydration**. This process typically involves the removal of a water molecule when two monomers bond together.

### Part B
The name of the process during which a bond between two monomers is broken is **hydrolysis**. This process usually involves the addition of water to break the bond.

### Part C
- Nucleic acid polymers are made up of **nucleotide** monomers.
- Carbohydrate polymers are made up of **monosaccharide** monomers.
- Protein polymers are made up of **amino acid** monomers.
