Where is pancreatic amylase made?
It depends on the amylase. Salivary amylase is produced in the salivary glands, while pancreatic amylase is produced in the pancreas, etc.
What is salivary maltase?
You might be referring to salivary amylase. Maltase is an enzyme produced by duodenum that breaks down the sugar maltose into glucose. Salivary amylase is an enzyme located in your saliva (there is also pancreatic amylase found in the pancreas). This enzyme breaks down carbohydrates (more specifically starch) which then can be absorbed in the small intestine.
What does salivary amylase help the body do?
helps t bobreak down the catalase similar to the ones in starches
Which enzyme is found in mouth?
salivary amylase
What substrate does salivary amylase act on?
Starch
Where is salivary amylase located in part of the body?
In the mouth of people!!!
What is salivary amylase's role in the human body?
They begin the metabolism of carbohydrates
How is amylase produced in the body?
yes, in the salivary gland. it;s in your spit.
What is the effect of mercury chloride on salivary amylase activity?
It will denature salivary amylase
What is the secretion of salivary glands?
salivary amylase
Where is pancreatic amylase made?
It depends on the amylase. Salivary amylase is produced in the salivary glands, while pancreatic amylase is produced in the pancreas, etc.

What organ produces salivary amylase?
The small intestine and the salivary glands are the organs of the digestive system that produces the enzyme amylase.
Why does the enzyme salivary amylase will act on starch but not on protein?
Because the enzyme salivary amylase lacks protein.

A mutation in the genes for salivary amylase will greatly affect the chemical digestion of what?
Amylase is responsible for the digestion of starches in the body. If a mutation occurred in the genes coding for the production of amylase, this would interfere with the body's ability to digest starches and other complex carbohydrates (which begins in the mouth with enzymes from the salivary glands).
The enzyme salivary amylase will act on starch but not on protein This action illustrates that salivary amylase?
4) lack protein
