Maltose
starch
starch is broken down by amylase and starch is the only food that its digestion begins in mouth by amylase of salavia.
Amylase is an enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of starch into sugars.
Amylase breaks down starch, and therefore the product of digestion is maltose.
Digestion begins in your mouth. Starch is digested (by salivary amylase) into maltose.
Digestion of starch and other carbohydrates begins in the mouth with an enzyme called salivary amylase.
yes temperature affects starch digestion, amylase work harder and better at higher temperatures
pepsin, coca
