Solution

The correct option is C Dehydration
Glycosidic bonds and peptide bonds are two types of covalent bonds which can be found in living systems. The formation of both of these bonds involves the removal of a water molecule and this process is called dehydration reactions (also known as condensation reactions).
So, the correct answer is option C.
