    Hydrolysis

    Explanation:

    Hydrolysis is the process of using water "hydro-" to break "lyse-" apart macromolecules. Because most molecules in the body are covalent, which is stronger in water than ionic, there needs to be a specific reaction to break them down, not just dissolution.

    For example, maltose can be broken down into two glucoses by this process.
