corn starch


Why starch does not hydrolyse?

Starch is easily hydrolyzed, as in human mouth ans small intestine .


What does soluble starch mean?

Soluble starch is a partially hydrolyzed (mostly by acid hydrolysis) starch, therefore it actually is a long-chain dextran.


What kind of carbohydrate cannot be hydrolyzed any further?

STARCH AND FIBER


If starch is hydrolyzed completely the end products of the reaction would be?

Glucose monomers


Where does the starch come from in food?

As part of photosynthesis, plants make sugar. This is transformed into the more solid starches (the polysaccharides amylose and amylopectin) using glycosidic bonds, similar to those that form glycogen in animal metabolism. These bonds are easily hydrolyzed to release the glucose.


What are the end products of starch hydrolysis?

When the starch is broken down, or hydrolyzed, the end product is glucose molecules.


At which enzyme concentration is starch hydrolyzed the fastest and slowest?

The enzyme that hydrolyzes starch the fastest is the amylase enzyme. This enzyme breaks down the starch until there is only sugar left.


Before starch can be used for respiratory ATP production it must be hydrolyzed to what?

glucose(: I am in AP Biology


Where the starch in a potato come from?

As part of photosynthesis, plants make sugar. This is transformed into the more solid starches (the polysaccharides amylose and amylopectin) using glycosidic bonds, similar to those that form glycogen in animal metabolism. These bonds are easily hydrolyzed to release the glucose. Potatoes are storing food in their tuber roots to last the winter.Heating a potato breaks down some of the starch into pyrodextrins, which are darker in color. Cooking the starch makes it more easily digested.

The difference between the chemical bonds in starch and those in cellulose?

they are all glycosidic bonds. in cellulose they are bonded so the sugars flip after every bond like a zig zag. in amylose it forms a right handed helix. in amylopectin it forms a right handed helix with a lot of branches (make it less soluble than amylose) Also Cellulose bonds are not hydrolyzed by human enzymes.
