What are food enzymes?

Biology
2 answers:
Llana [10]3 years ago

there aren't many enzymes in food, mainly in fruits, the enzymes in friuts are very similar to ptylin found in the mouth that help break down sugar, they do not need to be ingested before they activate, a proof of this is the apple test, buy an apple, take a bite and leave it without covering it for a few minutes, you'll notice that the bitten part starts turning yellowish brown because the enzymes in the apple are already breaking it down.  

In summary, they do not need to be ingested before activation, and the major characteristic of an enzyme is that they do not change after they react with (breakdown) food, so they are in the same form before and after they finish breaking down the food.

belka [17]

Answer:

The first layers of earth are very loose, unconsolidated layers called soil, which is pretty easy to dig into, but as we go deeper we reach the bedrock, which is the hardest part of the soil profile, which is made of hard rocks and matter.This makes it harder to dig more and more deeper.
