The secretions of the salivary gland begin the digestion of?
The salivary glad produces amylase. It is an enzyme that primarily functions to digest starches. Amylase is also produces in the pancreas.
Does saliva have amylase in it?
Saliva contains amylase, it begins the breakdown of starch into sugars
Where does CHO digestion begin?
In the mouth. Salivary Amylase breaks down alpha (1,4) bond of glycogen.
What does ATP provide?
ATP provides energy for a cell by storing energy in the bond between the second and third phosphate group. ATP really wants to get rid of the third phosphate group. When a cell needs energy it breaks the weak bond between the two phosphates and work is done.
What is the mechanism that breaks the linkage between linked genes?
crossing over
What enzymes found in saliva breaks chemical bonds between the sugar monomers in starches?
AMYLASEIm taking the class right know in e2020!!
What enzyme in saliva breaks the chemical bonds starches?
The enzyme found in saliva that breaks chemical bonds between starches and releases sugars is called Salivary amylase.
The chemical reaction that breaks the bonds between chains of monomers is called what?
hydrolysis (: thankyou come again .
What is the name of the process that breaks the bond in a polymer?
The reaction that breaks the bonds between atoms within a polymer chain is called "scission". The bonds between chains of monomers, if they exist at all, are not chemical bonds and are broken by thermal motion. *****It is actually called hydrolysis. Hydrolysis is a chemical process in which a molecule is separated into two parts by adding a molecule of water.****
What is produced when a polymer breaks apart?
Monomers.
Is a digestive enzyme that breaks starches into sugars?
no
Which enzymes are responsible for the final chemical breakdown of carbohydrates and amino acids and nucleic acids?
Trypsin and chymotrypsin break down proteins. Lipase breaks down lipids. Amylase breaks down starches and carbohydrates
What breaks down into units called glucose?
Both starches and celluloses.
What released enzymes into the small intestines?
Amylase, which breaks down starches into monosaccharides, trypsin, which breaks down proteins, and lipase, which breaks down fat.
What releases enzymes into small intestine?
Amylase, which breaks down starches into monosaccharides, trypsin, which breaks down proteins, and lipase, which breaks down fat.
What are the difference between mechanical weathering and chemical weathering?
The differences are that mechanical weathering breaks rocks into little pieces.. Chemical weathering not only breaks the rock but dissolves it.
Does digestion start before peristalsis takes place?
Yes, digestion starts in the mouth, before peristalsis takes place. The mouth breaks up food, and starts the chemical digestion of starches.
