Digestive Enzymes Flashcards
(22 cards)
a…… is a type of c…… . It turns s…… to m…… . This product is then turned to g…… by m…… .
amylase is a type of carbohydrase. It turns starch to maltose. This product is then turned to glucose by maltase.
Carbohydrases, such as amylase and maltase, are produced in the p……, the s…… g…… and the wall of the s…… i…… .
Carbohydrases, such as amylase and maltase, are produced in the pancreas, the salivary glands and the wall of the small intestine.
p…… and t…… are types of p…… . They turn p…… to a…… a…… .
pepsin and trypsin are types of proteases. They turn protein to amino acids.
Proteases, such as pepsin and trypsin, are produced in the s…… w……, the p…… and the wall of the s…… i…… .
Proteases, such as pepsin and trypsin, are produced in the stomach wall, the pancreas and the wall of the small intestine.
L…… turns L…… to g…… and f…… a…… .
Lipase turns Lipids to glycerol and fatty acids.
Lipase is produced in the p……
Lipase is produced in the pancreas.

What are three types of protease enzymes?
Pepsin
Trypsin
Peptidase
What digestive action does pepsin make?
Proteins —> Peptides

Give an example of a lipase
Lipase
What digestive action does lipase make?
Lipids —> Glycerol + Fatty Acids
Where are lipase made?
Pancreas
Where do lipase act?
Small Intestine
When amylase digests starch into maltose..
Amylase = enzyme Starch = substrate Maltose = product
