The nutrients found in milk are digested by many different enzymes. Lipase acts on the fat molecules, while proteases break down protein. The main carbohydrate in milk is lactose, which is digested using the enzymes lactase.
Sucrase is the enzyme (called a disaccharidase) that digests sucrose, the major disaccharide in table sugar.
The enzyme that digests starch is called amylase. Amylase is produced in both the saliva (salivary amylase) and the pancreas (pancreatic amylase) and breaks down starch into smaller sugar molecules like maltose.

The name of the type of enzyme that digests stains containing fats is Lipase.
A protease is an enzyme that digests protein. These enzymes are also known as peptidases.
No, insulin is a hormone that is produced by the pancreas to lower a person's blood sugar level. Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up a biological process. An example of an enzyme is 'Amylase' this enzyme is found in saliva and is responsible for the initial breakdown of sugar before entering the stomach.
The enzyme that digests protein is called pepsin, which is primarily active in the stomach and helps break down protein into smaller peptides.
The enzyme that digests proteins into peptides is called protease.
Amylase helps the body digesting starch. Different types of amylase (alpha, beta...) can split different types of starch into sugar units.
Bromelain--------it digests proteins.
