Characteristic shared by all enzymes involved in protein digestion is that all are?
They break down food and they both work closeley with insulin.
Which enzymes are at work during digestion?
During digestion the enzyme in saliva works on cooked food
Why are enzymes produced?
Enzymes and digestion. The enzymes involved in respiration, photosynthesis and protein synthesis work inside cells. Other enzymesare produced by specialised cells and released from them; the digestive enzymes are like this. They pass out into the gut, where they catalyse the breakdown of food molecules.
If all enzymes are proteins but all proteins are not enzymes then what makes enzymes different fr?
Enzymes are proteins, but as you can imagine, different parts of the body need different types of enzymes to work efficiently. Can you imagine the enzymes which break down food in the process of digestion being replaced by the enzymes which assist respiration or photosynthesis? It wouldn't work. Each type of enzyme controls different chemical processes.
Does crude fiber have enzymes?
Crude fiber does, in fact, have enzymes. There are also enzyme supplements that work to help aid the original enzymes in crude fiber digestion. The enzymes digest the crude fibers.
What is likely to prevent digestion of starch by carbohydrase enzymes in the stomach?
the hydrochloric acid is likely to prevent the digestion of starch by carbohydrase enzymes in the stomache because the carbohydrase enzymes optimum PH is PH7. The Hydrochloric acid in the stomache makes the PH in the stomache PH3 therefore the stomache has too weak a PH for the enzymes to be able to work.
How does the health of a person's teeth affect digestion?
Teeth are involved in the mechanical digestion process. If they are not healthy they will not work properly to chew food.
What part of the digestive system do the mechanical digestion?
Mechanical digestion is the breakdown of food through chewing, mixing, or churning. Mechanical digestion occurs in the mouth and stomach. The food is physically torn apart through the teeth, tongue, stomach contractions, etc. This is counterpart to chemical digestion, where acids and other enzymes chemically pull apart the food.
Why is there little or no digestion of starch in the stomach A. mucus inhibits starch breakdown B Stomach enzymes are dysfunctional C should not be eaten with protein D. salivary enzymes don't work?
The answer is B
Why does chewing food speeds up digestion?
If the food is chewed, it breaks it up into smaller pieces, producing more surface area for the digeative enzymes to work on.
What type of model does an enzyme work like?
enzymes work on lock and key model and induced fit model.
How are proteins involved in DNA replications?
Proteins are the enzymes, such as DNA polymerase, which actually to the work to replicate the DNA and help to maintain its integrity.
