Hydrolysis is the process that breaks down polysaccharides into simpler sugars.
Monosaccharides and disaccharides are examples of carbohydrates. Monosaccharides are single sugar molecules, while disaccharides are composed of two sugar molecules linked together.
The Benedict test is useful for monosaccharides and disaccharides.

The three classes of carbohydrates are monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides
The Molisch test detects carbohydrates by breaking them down to monosaccharides. Disaccharides need to be hydrolyzed into their constituent monosaccharides before they can react with the Molisch reagent, which makes the test slower compared to monosaccharides that can react directly.

The Benedict test is useful for monosaccharides and disaccharides.
Monosaccharides are converted into polysaccharides through a process called condensation reactions, where multiple monosaccharide molecules join together to form glycosidic bonds. This process requires the removal of a water molecule for each bond formed. Polysaccharides like starch, glycogen, and cellulose are formed by linking together large numbers of monosaccharide units in this way.
Disaccharides are broken down by hydrolysis, which is the addition of water molecule, to turn into two monosaccharides
Monosaccharides are single sugar molecules, while disaccharides are made up of two monosaccharides joined together. Disaccharides are formed through a dehydration reaction, where a water molecule is removed to bond the two monosaccharides together.
Disaccharides are formed by a dehydration reaction (condensation) between two monosaccharides, resulting in the formation of a glycosidic bond. This process involves the removal of a water molecule to join the two monosaccharides together. Common examples of disaccharides include sucrose, lactose, and maltose.
Monosaccharides combine to make disaccharides or polysaccharides through a dehydration synthesis reaction, where a water molecule is released. Examples of disaccharides include sucrose (glucose + fructose) and lactose (glucose + galactose). Examples of polysaccharides include starch, glycogen, and cellulose.
The primary function of disaccharides is as a nutritional source of monosaccharides. Many of the sugars found in foodstuffs are disaccharides.
