This will take you through the same questions again, showing you an answer slide then an explanation slide.
It is much better revision if you think of the explanation before look at the relevant slide.

Breaks down starch into sugars
AmylaseTrue for …
Starch is a carbohydrate. Amylase is the enzyme which breaks it down to make simple sugars like
glucose
Generally work best at 37oC
True for … All of them
This is body temperature and
digestive enzymes work best at this
temperature
Produces amino acids
True for … Protease
Protease is the enzyme for proteins and you get amino acids when proteins
are broken up
Act as a catalyst to help digest food
True for … All of them
A catalyst speeds up a chemical reaction
without being part of the actual reaction.
This is in effect a definition
of a digestive enzyme
Works best in low pH ( acid conditions)
True for … Protease
Protease is produced in the stomach which
is acidic. Most proteins are broken
down here.
Break down large particles into smaller ones
True for … All of them
This is in effect a definition of digestion. All
enzymes help this to happen
Helps change fats into fatty acids and glycerol
True for … Lipase
Lipase is the enzyme which works for fats. Fats
are large molecules, made up of the smaller
particles called fatty acids and glycerol
Can change shape at high temperatures
True for … All of them
The enzyme no longer works because the
“lock and key” do not match.
This change of shape is also called being
“denatured”.
Made of proteins folded into a special shape
True for … All of them
Digestive enzymes are in fact proteins. A bit confusing ! The
special shape makes the “lock and key”
match
Help to make glucose available in the blood stream
AmylaseTrue for …
Glucose is produced when starch is broken
down by amylase during digestion. It must pass into the bloodstream so it is
available for respiration
