Will amylase break down glycogen into glucose?
Yes, amylase can break down glycogen.
What does pancreatic amylase react or act on?
Amylase is the enzyme responsible for breaking down starch.
Amylase increases the rate at which starch is broken down into glucose. What kind of molecule is amylase?
It breaks down starches to simpler sugars.
What does the term 'amylase reaction' mean?
Amylase reactions happen when the enzyme called amylase breaks down starch molecules into sugar molecules. When a seed with a lot of starch sprouts into a plant, for example, it is likely to use amylase to convert the starch, which it cannot use directly, into sugar, which it can use.
The amount of oxygen liver cells require to react lactic acid to produce glucose or the glycogen?
The amount of oxygen liver cells require to react lactic acid to produce glucose or the glycogen is the oxygen debt. Threshold stimulus is the minimal amount of energy required to contract a muscle fiber.
Do beta-amylase catalyze the hydrolsis of glycogen?
yes
Which pancreatic enzymes acts on glycogen and starches?
Amylase
Will amylase break down glycogen into glucose?
Yes, amylase can break down glycogen.
What are the reactants of amylase?
The Substrate for amylase are starch (amylose and Amylopectin), glycogen, and various Oligosaccharides.
What does pancreatic amylase react or act on?
Amylase is the enzyme responsible for breaking down starch.
Is salivary amylase able to digest cellulose?
Salivary amylase is not able to digest cellulose. Amylase has the ability to digest starch but cellulose is a fibre which in indigestible.
Amylase aids in the digestion of?
Amylase aids in the digestion of carbohydrates
The amount of oxygen liver cells require to react lactic acid to produce glucose or the glycogen glycogen is the?
oxygen debt
Amylase increases the rate at which starch is broken down into glucose. What kind of molecule is amylase?
It breaks down starches to simpler sugars.
Where does CHO digestion begin?
In the mouth. Salivary Amylase breaks down alpha (1,4) bond of glycogen.
What is the subtrate and subunit product of amylase?
The Substrate for amylase are starch (amylose and Amylopectin), glycogen, and various Oligosaccharides and the subunit is maltose.
What does casease have in common with amylase?
Casease is an enzyme that is formed by some bacteria that decomposes casein and is used in ripening cheese. Amylase is any of a group of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of starch and glycogen or their intermediate hydrolysis products.
