Verified step by step guidance

Understand the basic concepts: Dehydration reactions involve the removal of water to form a new bond, typically creating larger molecules from smaller ones, such as forming polymers from monomers.

Recognize the role of hydrolysis: Hydrolysis reactions involve the addition of water to break bonds, typically breaking down larger molecules into smaller ones, such as breaking down polymers into monomers.

Analyze the given statements: Evaluate each statement based on the definitions of dehydration and hydrolysis reactions.

Identify the correct statement: The statement 'Dehydration reactions create polymers from monomers; hydrolysis reactions break down polymers' aligns with the definitions of these reactions.

Conclude the analysis: Confirm that the correct statement accurately describes the processes of dehydration and hydrolysis in the context of polymer and monomer interactions.
