Answer:
During digestion, starch is partially transformed into maltose by the pancreatic or salivary enzymes called amylases; maltase secreted by the intestine then converts maltose into glucose.

Maltose is produced by the enzymatic hydrolysis of starch (a homopolysaccharide) catalyzed by the enzyme amylase. Maltose is further hydrolyzed by the enzyme maltase to produce two molecules of d-glucose.
