Answer:

The correct answer is option C. Conversion of cellulose into Glucose units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! Let's solve this!

The options are:

A. Conversion of Glucose units into starch. B. Conversion of Fructose and Glucose units form sucrose. C. Conversion of cellulose into Glucose units.

Now we will answer the question:

Hydrolysis is the process by which the decomposition of the organic molecule occurs with the help of water.

In this case the correct answer is option C. Conversion of cellulose into Glucose units.

Since cellulose is the most complex molecule between the two, it breaks down and forms glucose. Decomposition occurs by the action of water.
