Answer:

The given statement is true.

Enzymes which are present in the digestive tract such as salivary amylase, pepsin, trypsin, et cetera mainly catalyze the hydrolysis reaction.

The hydrolysis reaction is the reaction by which large molecules are broken down into smaller molecules with the help of water.

Most of the complex molecules or nutrients such as starch, protein et cetera are broken down into their respective smaller units with the help of hydrolysis reaction.

For example, lactase catalyzes the hydrolysis of lactose into glucose and galactose.

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

2.2508\times 10^{19} m meter the mean free path of hydrogen atoms in interstellar space.Explanation:

The mean free path equation is given as:

\lambda =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}\pi d^2 n}

Where"

d = diameter of hydrogen atom in meters

n =  number of molecules per unit volume

We are given: d = 100 pm = 100\times 10^{-12}= 10^{-10} m

n = 1 m^{-3}

\lambda =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}\pi (10^{-10} m)^2\times 1 m^{-3}}

\lambda =2.2508\times 10^{19} m

2.2508\times 10^{19} m meter the mean free path of hydrogen atoms in interstellar space.
