The process of fermentation of starch involve many enzymes the sequence of enzymes used are____________________?
Correct answer: A. Diastase-maltase-zymase
- A. Diastase-maltase-zymase
- B. Zymase-maltase-diastase
- C. Maltase-diastase-zymase
- D. Diastase-zymase-maltase
Explanation
Diastase first hydrolyses starch to maltose, maltase converts maltose to glucose, and zymase ferments glucose to ethanol and carbon dioxide. The likely error is placing zymase first, although zymase acts only after fermentable glucose has been formed.

About Alcohols
Alcohols contain a hydroxyl group attached to a saturated carbon atom and are classified as primary, secondary or tertiary. Their nomenclature, hydrogen bonding, acidity, oxidation, dehydration, reaction with sodium and conversion to haloalkanes are covered, along with the distinction between alcohols and phenols, where the hydroxyl group is attached directly to an aromatic ring.
