The enzyme amylase can break glycosidic linkages between glucose monomers only if the monomers are the α form. which of the following could amylase break down?
a) glycogen
b) cellulose
c) chitin
d) glycogen and chitin only
e) glycogen, cellulose, and chitin

A. GLYCOGEN

Explanation:

Amylase is the enzyme that hydrolyzes complex carbohydrates into simpler monomeric forms like glucose. Amylase is most abundantly found in the liver, pancreas and in the small intestine. Amylase is the enzyme involved for the hydrolysis of starch molecules in our body. Starch is made up of amylose which is linear and amylopectin which is branched.

Glycogen is a version of amylopectin that is highly branched. The bodies of animals store glucose in the form of glycogen. Hence, the enzyme amylase can break down glycogen.

the answer is lactic acid from anaerobic respiration. the acid in lactic acid is what creates sore and burning muscles. if you think about how acid burns that will give you a clue for questions like this.
