Question

simulation:

starch: 3
amylase: 2
temp: 35
maltose: 0
maltase: 2
pH: 7
Glucose: 0
amylase inhibitor: 0

after letting the simulation run for about a minute, answer whether something true or false that happened during this simulation.
true or false: when maltose touched amylase it was turned back into starch

Answer 1

False. In the given simulation, amylase breaks down starch into maltose, not the other way around. Once maltose is produced, it would not be converted back into starch by amylase.
