What else can I help you with?
What is protease activation?
Not sure about the 'Active' part but at A-Level Biology we were taught that a Protease breaks down proteins into amino acids in food digestion. Hope this helps in some way.
What enzyme speeds up the breakdown of protein in food?
The enzyme which breaks down proteins (polypeptides) is called protease.
What enzyme speeds the breakdown of proteins in food?
Peptidase is the enzyme that speeds up the break down of proteins found in food. Another enzyme is called pepsin.Protease
What a substance that can digest food?
Enzymes such as protease and carbohydrase break down specific types of food i.e. protein and carbohydrate.
What are example of pancreatic enzymes?
Some examples of pancreatic enzymes include amylase, lipase, and protease. Amylase helps break down carbohydrates, lipase breaks down fats, and protease breaks down proteins. These enzymes are produced by the pancreas and play a crucial role in the digestion of food in the small intestine.
What breaks food down after it reaches the stomach?
Enzymes break down large food molecules into more useful nutrients. In the stomach, this is carried out by the enzyme pepsin. This is a protease, so it will digest proteins into amino acids.
Important intestinal enzymes are the?
Important intestinal enzymes include amylase, which breaks down carbohydrates; protease, which breaks down proteins; and lipase, which breaks down fats. These enzymes help to digest food in the small intestine, allowing nutrients to be absorbed into the bloodstream.
What is the substance that breaks down food?
enzymes in the body. amylase,hydrochloric acid etc.
Where is protease mixed with food?
stomach, small intestine
What protein helps break down food into energy?
Enzymes are proteins that can break down food into energy: lipase breaks down fats amylase breaks down carbohydrates protease breaks down proteins. When carbs are broken down glucose is left. Then: glucose + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water This is respiration. in this reaction, Adenasine triphosphate is broken down to adenasine diphospate, realeasing energy that enables us to do things. Hope that helps
What enzymes speeds up the breakdown of proteins in food?
protease
What class of food is partially digested in stomach?
Glands on the stomach walls secrete gastric juice containing Pepsin (a type of protease), which breaks down proteins into smaller molecules called peptides.
