The enzymes that digest dietary sugars are produced by the?
the small intestine. Pancreatic amylase, which is from the pancreas, enters the small intestine to digest the carbohydrates also, but the small intestine itself has many specific enzymes, including maltase, sucrase, and lactase. There is also an amylase from the saliva, which works in the mouth, but once the food (or bolus, now) enters the stomach, the salivary amylase stops working.
What enzyme is in the small intestine?
Amylase, protease and lipase are secreted from the pancreas into the small intestine. Sucrose, maltase, lactase from the wall of the intestine are also used to complete digestion.
What part of the digestive system produces enzymes?
Enzymes are produced in various regions of our digestive system. Starch is digested by amylase produced by our salivary glands; protein is broken down by pepsin, manufactured in the stomach. In the upper part of the small intestine - the duodenum - all main nutrient molecules are broken down by enzymes made in our pancreas and by the small intestine itself.

It is divided into 3 sections: upper, jejunum, and ileum. The lining of the small intestine secretes a hormone called secretin, which causes the pancreas to produce digestive enzymes.
