what are enzymes name any one enzym of our digestive system and its function
Answers
Answer:
enzymes are proteins that act as biological catalysts (biocatalysts). Catalysts accelerate chemical reactions. The molecules upon which enzymes may act are called substrates, and the enzyme converts the substrates into different molecules known as products.
Examples of digestive enzymes include: amylase — breaks apart complex sugars into smaller molecules like maltose. lipase — breaks down complex fats into smaller fatty acids and glycerol. pepsin — breaks down proteins in foods like meat, eggs, and dairy products into smaller peptides.

What are Enzymes ?
Enzymes are the some substances which are used in reactions for increasing rate of the reaction. Basically we can say that it is used as a catalyst.
Amylase is the one example of digestive system.
Functions of amylase are as follows:-
1. It helps in breaking down of the complex fats.
2. Also breakdown of protein goes on by the help of pepsin.
3. Breakdown of sugar into small small molecules is also done by this enzyme.
4. It is also used for breaking down of milk or dairy products.
