No. Amylase digests/uses starch.
Salivary amylase is not able to digest cellulose. Amylase has the ability to digest starch but cellulose is a fibre which in indigestible.
no
Amalyze breaks down starch not celluose.
carbohydrates (starches)
The Substrate for amylase are starch (amylose and Amylopectin), glycogen, and various Oligosaccharides.
Starch
The substrate for pancreatic amylase is starch. Amylase breaks down starch into maltose, a disaccharide composed of two glucose molecules. This breakdown process is important for the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates in the small intestine.
No, amylase cannot break down cellulose. Amylase is an enzyme that specifically breaks down starches, while cellulose is a complex carbohydrate found in plant cell walls that requires different enzymes, such as cellulase, to break it down.
The substrates of carbohydrase are carbohydrates. This gets further broken down into simple sugars. Hope this helps. :)
Starch is the substrate. Salivary amylase (like all amylases) is an enzyme that breaks down bonds between glucose residues in starch molecules. More specifically, the substrate for an amylase is an α-1,4-glycosidic bond. The products are sugars such as maltose and, in smaller amounts, glucose and maltotriose.
'''The''' substrate of amylase is in your head. Once you think about it hard, you will know. Just remember, '''I LOVE YOU.''' God bless God, you and Lady Gaga. Sincerly, Abeid :)
The Substrate for amylase are starch (amylose and Amylopectin), glycogen, and various Oligosaccharides and the subunit is maltose.
