Can Hydrolysis of simple lipids require an enzyme?
Yes, lipase
What is saccharification?
Saccharification is the hydrolysis of solube polysaccharides to form simple sugars.
Can simple lipids be hydrolyzed?
Yes, you can hydrolyze simple lipids. Hydrolyzable lipids are waxes, triacylglycerols, and phospolipids. However, steroids, fat-soluable vitamins, and elcosanoids are unhydrolyzable lipids.
What are the monomers for carbohydrates and lipids?
monomers for carbohydrates is monosaccharides simple sugar. monomer for lipids is 3 fatty acids
Classification of lipids?
There are several classification that pertain to lipids. Some of these are simple lipids, compound lipids and derived lipids. Lipids are sterols, fats, waxes and fat-soluble vitamins.
Can Hydrolysis of simple lipids require an enzyme?
Yes, lipase
What is enzyme like amylase for malt?
Yes, maltase is the enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of the disaccharide maltose to the simple sugar glucose.
What is produced from the hydrolysis of a disaccaride?
A disaccharide is two monosaccharides bound together by an ether linkage. Therefore, the product of hydrolysis of a disaccharide is two monosaccharides, or simple sugars as they are usually called. One reason reactions such as this are called "hydrolysis" reactions is because the reaction requires one molecule of water. Sucrose, or table sugar or cane sugar, is a disaccharide. The reaction of the hydrolysis of sucrose is: Sucrose + H2O -----> Glucose + Fructose (The reaction is catalyzed by acid in a lab and by the enzyme Sucrase in the human body. The hydrolysis is imperceptibly slow without acid. That is why sucrose doesn't hydrolyze when it's dissolved in plain water.)

What does hydrolysis of a simple protein yield?
Amino acids.
Polysaccharides are split apart to form monosaccharides in a reaction called?
This is a smart question. But the answer is simple it is a hydrogen reaction. - Hydrolysis.
What do lipase surcease and urease have in common?
Lipase is an enzyme released by the pancreas into the small intestine. It helps the body absorb fat by breaking the fat down into fatty acids.Urease is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea to ammonia and carbon dioxide.Surcease is a word that means stoppage or ending. It is probably a misspelling ofSucrase, which is an enzyme that breaks down the complex sugar sucrose into the simple sugar glucose.
What are the digestive enzyme?
Complex molecules are broken down into simple molecules by the action of specialised proteins called enzymes. The three digestive enzymes are:amylases, which act on the carbohydratesproteases, which act on the proteinslipases, which act on the lipids
What initial product does hydrolysis of starch produce?
Hydrolysis of starch produces simple sugars. This simple sugars then pass through various mechanism to yield ATP molecules. Starch is a storage polysaccride.
Which organic molecule is digested into simple sugar?
lipids
What is the function of a simple sugar or monosaccharide?
enzyme
