A protease will NOT be needed to digest the caramel 4. Bile, produced by the liver. will be needed to break down the caramel

Explanation / Answer

(1)False

Whole digestion process like chemical and mechanical will not take place solely in mouth.Mouth contains only salivary amylase which digests carbohydrate partially in the mouth further digestion takes place in other parts of elimentary canal.

(2)False

Salivary glands produce salivary amylase which partially digests carbohydrates.

(3)True

Protease is the enzyme needed for protwin digestion and as caramel do not contain protein,it do not require protease for digestion.

(4)True

Bile is needed for digestion of fat.As caramel contains 12.8 g of fat it requires bile.
