Answer:

Amylase is secreted by salivary glands in mouth, pancreas and small intestine.

Explanation:

Amylase is one of the important digestive enzyme that helps in the digestion of starch into simple sugars.

It is secreted by salivary glands and pancreas.

It works more effectively in small intestine.

Larger carbohydrate molecules like starch are broken down to simpler molecules like sugars by amylase.
