Maltase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes maltose into glucose. Diastase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes starch into maltose. Zymase is a complex of enzymes that catalyzes the fermentation of sugars to alcohol and carbon dioxide.<\/p>\n<p>Zymase is a complex of enzymes that catalyzes the fermentation of sugars to alcohol and carbon dioxide. It is found in yeast and other microorganisms. The main enzymes in zymase are alcohol dehydrogenase, which converts acetaldehyde to ethanol, and pyruvate decarboxylase, which converts pyruvate to acetaldehyde.<\/p>\n<p>The fermentation of sugars to alcohol and carbon dioxide is a metabolic pathway that occurs in many organisms. It is a way of producing energy in the absence of oxygen. The pathway begins with the glycolysis of glucose to pyruvate. Pyruvate is then converted to acetaldehyde by pyruvate decarboxylase. Acetaldehyde is then converted to ethanol by alcohol dehydrogenase. The final step in the pathway is the release of carbon dioxide.<\/p>\n<p>Fermentation is a important process in the production of alcoholic beverages, such as beer, wine, and cider. It is also used in the production of bread, vinegar, and biofuels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;invertase&#8221; option2=&#8221;maltase&#8221; option3=&#8221;zymase&#8221;
