What else can I help you with?
What happens when enzymes are added to starch suspension?
Enzymes, such as amylase, break down starch molecules into simpler sugars like glucose. This process is called hydrolysis. The enzymes speed up the reaction, resulting in the starch suspension becoming thinner or turning into a clear solution as the starch is broken down.
What emzyems only break down starch?
Amylases (enzymes) break down or degrade starch.
What does cellulose break down?
Cellulose is broken down by enzymes called cellulases, which are produced by some microbes and fungi. These enzymes break down the cellulose into its component sugars, such as glucose, which can then be used as an energy source by the organism.
What does mitochondria use to break down carbohydrates?
Enzymes are used to break them down. There are many enzymes
What is broken down starch called?
Glucose. Starch is broken down into glucose by enzymes in our digestive system.
What enzymes help break down starch into glucose?
The main enzymes that help break down starch into glucose are amylase enzymes. These enzymes can be found in the saliva and pancreatic secretions of humans and in various microorganisms. Amylase enzymes work by breaking the bonds between glucose units in the starch molecule, leading to the formation of simpler sugars like glucose.
What enzymes speed up the break down of protein in food?
Glucose
What does intestinal gland produce?
They secrete enzymes to break down maltose into glucose.
What kind of polysaccharide cannot be digested by human beings?
Humans cannot break down cellulose because it contains beta glucose and the enzymes that humans have cannot break down beta glucose.

What food molecule starch or glucose will pass easily through the wall of the small intestine?
glucose because it can easily break down by enzymes than starch
How do the lysomes break down food material inside a vacuole?
Lysosomes pour enzymes into the vacuole to break apart (digest) the chains of glycogen into glucose.
What emzyems only break down starch?
Amylases (enzymes) break down or degrade starch.

Cellulose and starch are both polymers of glucose yet most mammals can use starch but not cellulose as a source of fuel?
mammals have very specific enzymes, one that breaks down starch and another that breaks down glycogen. however, the human digestive system does not have an enzyme to break down the polymer cellulose. cellulose is a straight-chain polysaccharide with glucose-glucose linkages different from those in starch or glycogen. some herbavores such as cattle, rabbits, termites, and giraffes have specially developped stomachs and intestines that hold enzyme-producing bacteria or protozoa to aid in the breakdown of cellulose. it is the different glucose-glucose linkages that make cellulose different from starch. recall that, when glucose forms a ring structure, the functional groups attached to the ring are fixed in a certain orientation above or below the ring. our enzymes are specific to the orientation of the functional groups, and cannot break down the glucose-glucose linkages found in cellulose.
What enzymes are required for digestion?
Many sorts of enzymes at different parts of the system. In the mouth enzymes to break down sugars, in the stomach enzymes to break down proteins and in the small intestine enzymes to break down fats and sugars.
