What disaccharide does the digestive enzyme amylase break down starch to?
Amylase helps the break down of starch into sugars (disaccharides). Amylase itself is not broken down. It is an enzyme and it doesn't enter into the reaction in any way. The disaccharide that is formed is sucrose, maltose or lactose.
What happens when enzymes are added to starch suspension?
The enzyme eg. Amylase will break down the starch into sugar.
The enzyme amylase can break glycosidic linkages between glucose monomers only if the monomers are the α form Which of the following could amylase break down?
can break down glycogen and starch (ex: amylopectin or amylose). But not cellulose which is made from beta form glucose. Amylase, present in saliva, breaks down starch into maltose and simple sugars. The maltose is then broken down in the small intestine by maltase into glucose.
Which enzyme will break down starch into smaller monosaccharide molecules?
Alpha amylase is the enzyme that breaks down starch into it's individual glucose monosaccharide molecules.
What does amylase break down?
Amylase breaks down starch molecules into sugar. It is produced in the salivary glands, the pancreas and the small intestine.
What enzymes help break down starch into glucose?
amylase

What can the enzyme amylase break down?
The enzyme amylase can break down starch to maltose.
When amylase breaks down starch what does it release?
amylase breaks starch down and releases maltose from which maltase breaks it up into two glucose molecules

What the amylase salivary break down?
Starch
Which enzyme breaks down starch into glucose?
Amylase
What is the subtrate of amylase?
It acts on starch.It breaks down starch into glucose.
What is the substance that breaks down starch into sugar?
Maltase
