The correct answer is: C.Water forms as a product as H is removed from 1 monomer and OH is removed from the other.

Explanation:

In a dehydration synthesis reaction (also known as a condensation reaction), two monomers are bonded together, and a molecule of water is released. Here's how it works:

1.A hydrogen (H) atom is removed from one monomer.

2.A hydroxyl group (OH) is removed from the other monomer.

3.The resulting H and OH combine to form water (H₂O), which is released as a byproduct.

4.The remaining parts of the monomers form a covalent bond between them, creating a larger molecule (such as a polymer).
