A protease is an enzyme that breaks down protein.
Proteases breaks-down proteins into peptides & amino acids
Gravy is a protein based liquid and so the enzyme that breaks it down is protease, this is the same case as blood, egg or sweat.
No, you need protease to break down meat.
Proteases break down proteins by hydrolysis (addition of a water molecule to break a bond) into amino acids. The substrate the protease enzyme works on is protein. Enzymes are often named for the substrates they catalyse (or break down).
Protease enzymes break down peptides by cleaving peptide bonds between amino acids. One example of a protease enzyme is pepsin, which breaks down proteins in the stomach.

To break down proteins into their amino acids
Gravy is a protein based liquid and so the enzyme that breaks it down is protease, this is the same case as blood, egg or sweat.
Protease is an enzyme that works to break down proteins into their basic amino acids. Specifically, it is any enzyme that performs proteolysis.

Amylase for carbs Protease for protein
A protease is an enzyme that helps the process to break down proteins. Any word with -ase at the end is an enzyme. The rest of the word is the substrate or what is acted upon.
Protease is an enzyme so it would break down into amino acids. (If you meant protein then the same is true)
Protease in general. Pepsin in the stomach and trypsin in the small intestine in mammals break down protein into polypeptide chains and erepsin in the small intestine break down polypeptide chains into amino acids.
