A specialized protein in saliva breaks up starch molecules in food into smaller chains of simple sugars. In this reaction, which
molecule is the enzyme, which is the substrate, and which is the product? One of the four answer choices will not be used.a. Saliva b. Starch molecules
c. Smaller chains of simple sugars
d. specialized protein
Starch molecules taken into the mouth from food substances are processed to an extent of 30% of its digestion. this is carried out by a specialized protein/ an enzyme that is present in the saliva; called amylase or ptyalin. this enzyme acts on the substrate molecule which in this case is starch molecules and convert it into smaller chains of simple sugars that includes maltose and dextrin which is digested in the small intestine.
Explanation:This hormone is considered a gonadotrophin hormone because of its role in controlling the function of ovaries in females and testes in males, which are known as the gonads.
Firstly, it cannot be bacteria because bacteria is prokaryotic with no membrane bound organelles. And it's cell wall is made of murein (peptidoglycan).
It certainly isn't a virus virus because a virus has no true cellular structure.
Let's see why we ruled out the other 3 eukaryotic kingdoms:
It can't be an animal because animal cells don't have cell walls and are multicellular.
It can't be fungi because its cell wall is made of chitin, not cellulose.
It can't be a plant because plants are all multicellular.
