Salivary amylase will be active for only an hour or so because the optimum pH for activity of amylase is about 6.7–7.0 which is available in the mouth but the pH of the stomach is acidic around 1-2 due to which the amylase enzyme becomes inactive in short-time.
The lingual lipase enzyme is present in the saliva but isn't active until reaching the stomach because this enzyme is acid stable and works efficiently in the stomach, not in the mouth.
Amylase enzyme is secreted in the mouth and is responsible for the breakdown of starch in food into sugars and it starts acting as soon as we put food in the mouth whereas Lingual lipase enzyme is secreted along with saliva but it is not active in the mouth rather its activity starts in the stomach which is responsible for the degradation of triacylglycerol molecules.

Answer:
Look at the picture below!!!
Explanation:
Answer:
No 15N/15N labeled DNA was observed in second generation
Explanation:
Meselson and Stahl were doing an experiment to find out the semi-conservative mode of replication of DNA. The first cultured bacteria in 15N medium which was containing a heavy isotope of nitrogen. The DNA synthesized here had more density. After that they transferred the bacteria to the 14N containing medium. When bacteria reproduced and new strands of DNA were synthesized, they observed the following -
- The first generation had hybrid DNA with 15N/14N strands
- The second generation had both hybrid 15N/14N DNA and 14N/14N DNA strands
- There was no 15N/15N DNA observed.
In this way they proved that one strand of DNA is kept conserved during the replication.
Answer:
C; Oxygen concentration
Explanation:
Oxygen is product, not a reactant in photosynthesis. Light and carbon dioxide are reactants, and extreme temperatures can denature the plant.
