ANSC 303 CARBOHYDRATES Exam Questions AND Correct
Answers
⍺-amylase - ✔✔endo-enzyme that helps breakdown starch to
produce oligosaccharides.
ADF - ✔✔Acid Detergent Fiber
ADL - ✔✔acid detergent lignin
after the mouth where does pancreatic amylase continue its
starch digestion - ✔✔the small intestine
Cellobiohydrolase - ✔✔produces celloiose from
oligosaccharides
Cellodextrinase - ✔✔cleaves glucose from cellulose
Cellulolytic bacteria - ✔✔break down cellulose
crude fiber - ✔✔the insoluble carbohydrates remaining in
feed
, Do grains or forages contain more cellulose - ✔✔forages have
more cellulose, beacasue they are high in plant material
rather than fiber/grain that is more starch less fiber
Do mammals secrete enzymes capable of digesting cellulose? -
✔✔no, we can not digest this with just our mammalian
enzymes. We rely on microorganisms to break down the
cellulose
Endoglucanase - ✔✔produces oligosacharides from cellulose
Exoglucanase - ✔✔produces 1 glucose from a cellulose
molecule
Fermentation - ✔✔the microbial breakdown of carbohydrates
Glucoamylase - ✔✔breaks down starch to glucose
Gluconeogenesis - ✔✔making glucose from NCHO. usually
happes when carbs are low
