Temp: 35
Maltose: 0
Maltase: 0
pH: 7
Glucose: 0
Amylase Inhibitor: 0 
Which of the following did you observe?
*
1 point
Amylase did not have a reaction with starch
Amylase reacted with starch to create glucose molecules
Amylase reacted with starch to create maltose molecules

1 answer

Based on the settings provided for the simulation, with starch being present (3), a moderate amount of amylase (2), an optimal temperature of 35°C, neutral pH (7), and no maltose or glucose initially present, the most likely observation would be:

Amylase reacted with starch to create maltose molecules.

Amylase is an enzyme that catalyzes the breakdown of starch into smaller carbohydrate molecules, primarily maltose. Since the conditions (temperature, pH) are favorable and there is enough amylase present, a reaction would occur resulting in the production of maltose.
