Answer 2

Amylase is the enzyme which breaks down starch.

Explanation:

• The digestion of starches begins in the mouth itself because starch is broken down by the amylase present in the saliva.

• However, it is the pancreatic amylase which is actually involved in breaking down the starches.

• Starch is broken down into maltose and some of glucose.

• After the mouth, the process of breakdown of starch occurs in the stomach and the small intestine.
