Answer:
Hi mate
Explanation:
Amylase is a digestive enzyme that acts on starch in food, breaking it down into smaller carbohydrate molecules.
In the digestive systems of humans and many other mammals, an alpha-amylase called ptyalin is produced by the salivary glands, whereas pancreatic amylase is secreted by the pancreas into the small intestine.
