I'm really not sure
No, because amylase, like all other enzymes, has a very specific structure. Only one substrate has a shape that is complementary to amylase, which is starch. Any other molecules will be unable to bind to the active site, and so reactions with other substances won't happen.
The optimum pH level for enzymes varies depending on the specific enzyme. Typically, enzymes have an optimal pH at which they function most effectively. For example, pepsin functions optimally at a pH of around 2, while trypsin functions optimally at a pH of around 8.
The body is more sensitive to changes in carbon dioxide levels than oxygen levels. Carbon dioxide levels in the blood are tightly regulated by the body and even small changes can trigger the respiratory system to adjust breathing rates. Oxygen levels, on the other hand, have a more gradual impact on breathing regulation.
yes there is acid in your saliva.... that's how you break up your food other than your teeth... :)
Both low and high cholesterol levels can be harmful to one's health. Low cholesterol levels can increase the risk of certain health conditions such as hemorrhagic stroke, while high cholesterol levels can increase the risk of conditions like heart disease and stroke. It is important to maintain a balance and follow a healthy lifestyle to keep cholesterol levels in check.
Amylase and lipase levels are not typically elevated in individuals with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). IBS is a functional gastrointestinal disorder primarily characterized by symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, and changes in bowel habits, without specific biochemical markers. Elevated levels of amylase and lipase are usually associated with pancreatic conditions or other gastrointestinal disorders rather than IBS. If these enzymes are elevated, further investigation is needed to identify the underlying cause.
The optimal pH for salivary amylase is around 6.7, which is slightly acidic. At this pH, salivary amylase functions most efficiently in breaking down starches into simpler sugars like maltose. Any significant deviations from this pH can affect the enzyme's activity.
Optimal is about 150. They should be treated in order to prevent pancreatitis, regardless of the cardiac risk, if they are above 500. Other than that whether to treat elevated triglycerides depends on the rest of the lipid panel and other risk factors for heart disease.

Amylase works best at body temperature, which is around 37 degrees Celsius. This is because if the temperatre is too low, the amylase will collide slow as the kinetic energy will be low. It reacts fastest and best in this temperatue as lota of kinetic energy is given to the molecules and the particles therefore collide faster. Although, when the temperature is too high, the enzymes (amylase) gets denatured which means that they loose their shape. This way they do not react.
Amylase is an enzyme that helps break down carbohydrates, specifically starches, into sugars. Carbohydrates are a broad category that includes sugars, starches, and fibers. Therefore, carbohydrates are the substrates acted upon by amylase, rather than belonging to it.
the time is related to enzymatic activity of amylase because as the sol'n or substance has been added to the iodine sol'n, the soln' will change color and its time gives you an idea w/c of the sol'n react faster than the other. the time is related to enzymatic activity of amylase because as the sol'n or substance has been added to the iodine sol'n, the soln' will change color and its time gives you an idea w/c of the sol'n react faster than the other. the time is related to enzymatic activity of amylase because as the sol'n or substance has been added to the iodine sol'n, the soln' will change color and its time gives you an idea w/c of the sol'n react faster than the other.
starch can be broken down into simple sugars by the enzyme amylase
Higher levels of salinity produce brine shrimp that are smaller, but reach sexual maturity faster than those in lower levels. Also lower levels of salinity tend to allow more predators into the ecosystem.

Nothing.
For optimal health benefits, it is recommended to stay in a sauna for about 15-20 minutes. Staying longer than this can lead to dehydration and other potential risks.
