BSCAmylase: Amylase catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch (polymer of glucose) into sugars. The enzyme is present in the saliva of humans as well as secreted by the pancreas. The enzyme is classified into α-amylase (EC 3.2.1.1), β-amylase (EC 3.2.1.2), and γ-amylase (EC 3.2.1.3). Amylase [...] -
NEETProducer protists: Producer protists are unicellular. Many of them produce their foods using sunlight and CO2. Like green plants, producer protists contain chlorophyll a, chlorophyll c pigments, peridinin, and diadinoxanthin pigments. Zooxanthellae (dinoflagellates) are mostly photosynthetic protists.
