Houston Noble · Answer 1

Water and polymers.

Explanation:

Dehydration reaction may be defined as the reaction in which a water molecule is released during the process of reaction. Large molecules are joined together by the process of dehydration.

Polymers are formed by reacting the monomers together with a release of small molecules like water. Hence, water and polymers are formed by dehydration reaction.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).
