What are the end products of the action of pancreatic amylase on starch?
Pancreatic Amylase converts starch into.............MALTOSE!! and other byproducts.
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.
