The enzyme maltase breaks down disaccharide maltose into simple sugar glucose, which is usable by the body. This glucose can now also be stored in the liver for future use.

This maltase does nor break down sugar sucrose because it is the sucrase enzyme that breaks down sucrose into glucose and fructose.

Answer:

B. Birds allow their temperature drop in order to increase their production efficiency.

Explanation:

Most birds can drop the temperature a few centigrade degrees, while there are torpid birds capable of lowering much more. Birds can drop body temperature in response to environmental conditions. Bird species including, among others, swifts, hummingbirds and chickadees are capable of regulating body temperature during torpor state. There are different morphological and behavioral adaptative traits that enable birds to minimize the cost of thermoregulation. In the first place, epidermis surface allows heat loss to the environment, while arteries and veins in the legs help to retain heat in cold conditions.
