BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Amylases digest starch into smaller molecules, ultimately yielding maltose, which in turn is cleaved into two glucose molecules by maltase.

Detailed explanation-2: -The pancreas serves two functions in the breakdown of starch: It produces the enzyme amylase which is released from exocrine glands (acinar cells) into the intestinal tract.

Detailed explanation-3: -Starch is cleaved by the Salivary Amylase enzyme. Amylase first digest starch into maltose, which in turn cleave maltose into two glucose molecule by another enzyme known as Maltase. Hence, the enzyme that breaks down starch are Salivary Amylase, Pancreatic amylase, and Maltase.
