Amylase is a type of enzyme that can be found in saliva and pancreatic juices. It breaks down glycogen and starch into simple sugars (glucose).


Explanation:

Amylase could be a biological process catalyst that acts on starch in food, breaking it down into smaller saccharide molecules. First, secretion glands in your mouth create secretion enzyme, that begins the method process by breaking down starch after you chew your food, changing it into disaccharide

1. Draw and label the parts of an ATP and ADP molecule. . 2. Explain (in diagrams) how energy can be \"stored\" using ADP and a
zlopas [31]
<span>Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) consists of an adenosine molecule bonded to three phophate groups in a row. In a process called cellular respiration, chemical energy in food is converted into chemical energy that the cell can use, and stores it in molecules of ATP. This occurs when a molecule of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) uses the energy released during cellular respiration to bond with a third phosphate group, becoming a molecule of ATP. So the energy from cellular respiration is stored in the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate groups of ATP. When the cell needs energy to do work, ATP loses its 3rd phosphate group, releasing energy stored in the bond that the cell can use to do work. Now its back to being ADP and is ready to store the energy from respiration by bonding with a 3rd phosphate group. ADP and ATP constantly convert back and forth in this manner.</span>
