Choose one of the following options that correctly fills the blanks labelled as I and II in the paragraph below.
Lower critical solution temperature (LCST) polymers exhibit a decrease in their water solubility with an increase in temperature. This happens because, at low temperatures, the hydrogen bonding between the ___I___ segments of polymer chain and the water molecules dominates. At high temperatures, the interactions between the ___II___ segments dominate.
