Why does enzymes only work on one substance?
Yes every enzyme has a specific site to react on , so if a body is lacking certain kind of enzyme the corresponding reaction will not occur
The specific function of the enzyme maltase?
Maltase is a biological catalyst used in digestion. Once starch has been broken down to maltose,maltase continues the chemical digestion and breaks the maltose down to glucose, ie a soluble, smaller molecule that can easily be absorbed.
Can maltose be digested?
Yes Maltose can be digested by the human body. Cellulose can not
What is maltase?
Responsible for the breaking down of maltose into glucose. This enzyme is found in plants, bacteria, and yeast.The glucose produced is either utilized by the body or stored in the liver as glycogen.
Where is the enzyme cellulase located in the body?
in the cells
What kind of enzyme breaks down carbohydrates?
Starch is the polysaccharide which is broken down into glucose by the body in a series of stages. Amylase digests starch into maltose (a disaccharide). Maltase is the enzyme which breaks maltose into glucose.

Where is maltase located in the human body?
Maltose isn't used inside the body but it can be used to sweeten many foods.Maltose is a disaccharide formed from two units of glucose. In order for the body to "use" maltose, it must be digested and absorbed in its monomeric form: GLUCOSE. When food passes through the stomach as chyme and passes into the small intestine's duodenum, this causes the small intestine to release disaccharidases (i.e. maltase), which are a group of enzymes that can digest disaccharides, such as maltose. Once maltose is broken down by maltase into two units of glucose, glucose is free to be absorbed by the gut.
What happens to an enzyme and structure as it exceeds the typical human body temperature?
The enzyme can denature and will not function because it is no longer in the proper shape.
