protein are the comlex structures formed by the polypeptide chains whcih are joined are formed so by different forces like hydrogen bond, covalent bond, hydrophobic forces, van-der-wall forces etc. These bonds or forces can be broken chemically or mechanically. There are some chemicals or enzymes peresent naturally in the body which can break down protein like pepsin and some acid like HCl and mechanically protein can be breaked by providing heat or changing in pressure whcih lead to breaking of bonds like hydrogen bonds

What enzyme breaks down starch into sugars which are than broken down by the other three enzymes?
starch can be broken down into simple sugars by the enzyme amylase
How does the bread mold obtain its food?
It breaks down the bread starches into simple sugars
Which part of the body contains enzymes that breaks down starch into simple sugar?
Saliva (salivary glands) and the pancreas both contain the enzyme (amylase) that breaks starches down into simple sugars.
What breaks down protein chains so that amino acids can pass into the bloodstream?
Proteins are broken down by protease enzymes (e.g. pepsin) into polypeptides. Polypeptides are broken down by peptidase enzymes into amino acids.
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 does salivary amylases break down?
Amylase breaks down complex sugars into simple sugars.
What breaks down complex sugars to simple sugars in the mouth and small intestine?
sucrase
What enzyme breaks down starch into sugars which are than broken down by the other three enzymes?
starch can be broken down into simple sugars by the enzyme amylase
How does the bread mold obtain its food?
It breaks down the bread starches into simple sugars
Is amylase safe as a digestive enzyme?
Yes. Amylase is an emzyme that breaks down complex sugars such as starch into simple sugars.
What breaks complex sugars into simple sugars and proteins down to amino acids?
The enzyme amylase breaks the complex sugars into simple sugars. The enzyme pepsin in the stomach breake the peptide bond to get peptides. The enzymes trypsin and chymotrypsin from pancreas break the peptides to amino acids, in the small intestine.
What is the enzyme of intestinal juice and pancreatic juice?
there is a few enzymes present in intestinal juice and pancreatic juice one is amalayse i works by breaking down carbohydrates like starch into simple sugars like glucose ,another present is pepsin ,that breaks down protiens in to polypeptides or amino acids ,another is lipase which breaks down fat or lipids into glycerol and fatty acids :)
Which part of the body contains enzymes that breaks down starch into simple sugar?
Saliva (salivary glands) and the pancreas both contain the enzyme (amylase) that breaks starches down into simple sugars.
What does pancreatic amylase do in the body?
It breaks down carbohydrates into simple sugars!
What is end product of amylase in digestion?
Amylase breaks down starch, and therefore the product of digestion is maltose.
What explains addiction as a response to chemical disruption in the brain?
Amylase breaks down carbohydrates into maltose sugars. Pepsin begins the digestion of protein to long-chain polypeptides. Trypsin converts long chain peptides into short chain peptides. And Lipase breaks down fats into fatty acids and glycerol.
What breaks down protein chains so that amino acids can pass into the bloodstream?
Proteins are broken down by protease enzymes (e.g. pepsin) into polypeptides. Polypeptides are broken down by peptidase enzymes into amino acids.
