Which of these processes is an example of hydrolysis? a) conversion of glucose units into starch b) conversion of fructose and glucose units to form sucrose c) conversion of cellulose into glucose units

The correct answer will be option-C.

Explanation:

Hydrolysis is a type of chemical reaction where a water molecule is utilized or consumed to rupture the chemical bonds. In these reactions, water acts as a nucleophile and separate the larger molecules into its components.

In the given question, the process of cellulolysis or the breakdown of cellulose to smaller polysaccharide like cellodextrins or glucose units is a hydrolytic reaction.  This reaction requires an ionic solvent as cellulose molecules bind strongly to each other and cellulolysis Is difficult.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

one part of the electromagnetic spectrum that arrives on earth as solar radiation from the sun is the visible spectrum. wavelengths of the visible spectrum combine to form what we refer to as

answer - d) ultraviolet radiation.

violet /   380–450 nm / 668–789 thz

violet is number 1 in the chart of visible light.
