Question

What is responsible for this change in taste? what is responsible for this change in taste? amylase breaks down the starch in the cracker into glucose monomers, which stimulate the sweet receptors in your tongue. lysozyme breaks down the starch in the cracker into glucose monomers, which stimulate the sweet receptors in your tongue. lysozyme breaks down the cellulose in the cracker into glucose monomers, which stimulate the sweet receptors in your tongue. amylase breaks down the glycogen in the cracker into glucose monomers, which stimulate the sweet receptors in your tongue?

Answer 1

Amylase is  a protein made by your pancreas and by glands in and around your mouth and throat. It helps you break down carbohydrates and starches into sugar. It's normal to have some amylase in your blood. But too much of it could mean one of the ducts (tubes) in your pancreas is blocked or injured.

• Amylase breaks down the starch in the cracker into glucose monomer  which stimulate sweet receptor in the tongue.

• Amylase break down the glycogen in the receptor which stimulate the sweet receptor in the tongue.

• Lyzozyme breaks down the cellulase in the cracker into glucose monomer which stimulate sweet receptor in the tongue.

Answer 2

Answer:

Option (1).

Explanation:

Digestion may be defined as the process of breakdown of large food particles into simpler substances and absorbed by the chemical. Digestive juices and enzymes are required for the process of digestion.

The saliva contains the enzyme known as salivary amylase. This enzymes acts on the carbohydrate and breakdown them into simple sugars. The hydrolysis of starch by amylase result in the sweet taste of starch.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
