Which of the following does not describe an enzyme?

(1) Protein molecules(2) Inorganic catalysts(3) Biological catalysts(4) Organic molecules

Amylase is an enzyme in the saliva that begins the digestion of food. Amylase is specifically designed to break down carbohydrates. As amylase is swallowed with food, it makes its way into the stomach where it is no longer functional.

In your answer be sure to include:

State the specific function of all enzymes [1] State what type of biological molecule all enzymes are [1] State the specific product of the chemical reaction catalyzed by amylase [1] Give one reason why amylase will no longer function once it reaches the stomach [1]
