Digestion of energy nutrients requires specific enzymes for each molecule. Which of the following enzymes is incorrectly matched with its corresponding molecule?

A. Sucrose - maltase
B. Fats - lipase
C. Starch - amylase
D. Lactose - lactase


Sagot :

Final answer:

Each energy nutrient requires specific enzymes for digestion. The incorrect match in the choices is Sucrose-maltase, as sucrase is the correct enzyme for sucrose digestion.


Explanation:

Sucrose-maltase is incorrectly matched as sucrose is broken down by an enzyme called sucrase, not maltase. Maltase functions in breaking down maltose into glucose. The other enzyme-molecule pairs are correctly matched: fats are broken down by lipase, starch is broken down by amylase, and lactose is broken down by lactase.
