In a simulation where amylase interacts with starch, the expected outcome is that starch is broken down into smaller carbohydrate molecules. Amylase is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch, breaking it down first into maltose (a disaccharide) and eventually into glucose (a monosaccharide). Therefore, the most accurate observation would be:
Starch was broken down to maltose, then to glucose.
If it is necessary to select only one option and assuming a simplified process, you might choose "Starch was broken down to maltose" as the immediate result of amylase action, knowing it can further degrade to glucose.
