this process is called catalysis
For example thermal decomposition.
Alpha amylase is the enzyme that breaks down starch into it's individual glucose monosaccharide molecules.
The enzymes like pepsin break down the proteins and not the other molecules because they are themselves protein.
They break down molecules into smaller parts.
Carbohydrases is the general term given to any enzyme which acts on carbohydrate molecules.
glucose and other food molecules
The Enzymes speed up the process in which orgaic molecules breakown. They help the molecules break down. Therefore speeding up the process. Thats the Low-down. Hope it helped :)
Yes, all organisms perform cellular respiration. It is the process by which enzyme-catalyzed reactions break down organic molecules and produce energy in the form of ATP. This energy is used by the cells (of the organism) to perform work.
Enzyme
Breakdown of food molecules, that is, conversion of complex organic substances into simple organic ones is called digestion.
They break down large molecules
Alpha amylase is the enzyme that breaks down starch into it's individual glucose monosaccharide molecules.
atp
Hydrolysis
yes it is since it is an enzyme that is made by the human body to break down starch
