Water assists in the breakdown of macromolecules by breaking the covalent bonds between the monomers. What type of bonds does water break when it is digesting RNA?
a. glycosidic bonds
b. ester bonds
c. phosphodiester bonds
d. peptide bonds
e. hydrogen bonds

The ribonucleic acid, RNA molecules are held together by hydrogen bonds. And as we know that water is the universal solvent, and it is capable of breaking many molecules that are being held together through bonds by dissolving the bonds.

Therefore, in this case of the RNA, the water will break the hydrogen bonds that held the monomers or molecules together.
