Heya !!!


Here is your answer.

➡ Salivary glands have digestive enzymes which helps in the digestion of starch.

➡ These enzymes are known as Salivary amylase.

➡ Salivary amylase helps in the breakdown of starch in the mouth and hence, the digestion of starch starts in the mouth.

➡ They also helps in mixing of food with water for easy swallowing.

Hope It Helps

heya !!!

◇SALIVARY GLANDS secrete saliva containing an enzyme called SALIVARY AMYLASE (ptyalin).

◇It converts STARCH INTO SUGAR at optimum pH of about 7 .

◇CARBOHYDRATES digestion initiates inside the mouth .

◇ It breaks the complex food materials into simple molecules which makes food easy to get swallowed.

◇It is due to these salivary glands glands that our mouth waters when we eat or smell something we like.

hope it helps u dear ^_^
