3 hydrolysis reactions can occur to break down 1 fat molecule into its glycerol and 3 fatty acid components. The functional groups are linked by a bond called ester linkage. Mason goes to the gym to lose weight and discovers that drinking water helps. Drinking water has many functions in exercise and weight loss – one of which is metabolizing fats. How many water molecules are needed to break down 2 fat molecules through hydrolysis reactions? How many water molecules are released to form 5 sucrose molecules? What do lactose, maltose, and sucrose have in common? (Choose all that apply) 1. a fructose unit 2. a glucose unit 3. a galactose unit 4. appear to be made of 3 monomers 5. appear to be made of 2 monomers
