Question

3. The end product of hydrolysis of “Starch” by amylase is …………. a) Soluble starch b) Glucose c) Dextrins d) Maltose

Answer 1

Answer:

maltose becoz there is enzyme Amylase which produces maltose

Answer 2

Answer:

The end product of hydrolysis of starch by amylase is the option d) Maltose

Explanation:

• The starch is a carbohydrate, a polymer of glucose joined by the glycosidic bonds.
• The amylase enzyme catalyzes the process of hydrolysis of the starch into simpler sugar molecules.
• This enzyme is found in the saliva of humans, known as the salivary amylase.
• This enzyme, starts the process of digestion in the mammal.
• The hydrolysis of starch, the amylase plays an important role by catalyzing the reaction so that it can be broken down into simpler molecules, which can be absorbed by the cells.
• The starch molecules break into the maltose molecules which are made up of two glucose molecules.
