produces protease enzyme called pepsin
8 of 18

pancreas produces....
protease amylase and lipase enzymes
11 of 18
protease amylase and lipase enzymes
are released into the small intestine
12 of 18
small intestine produces....
protease amylase and lipase enzymes to complete digestion
13 of 18
small intestine
digested food is absorbed out of the system and into the blood
14 of 18
enzymes are used in...
biological detergents and washing powders
15 of 18
enzymes are also used to..
change foods
16 of 18
advantages of using enzymes in industry..
they're specific so they only catalyse in the reaction you want them to. using lower temperatures means a lower cost. they work for a long time. they are biodegradable.
17 of 18
disadvantages of using enzymes in industry..
some people develop allergies. can stop working by a small increase in temperature. are expensive to produce,
