Ques. 1NEET (UG) 2022

Which of the following functions is not performed by secretions from salivary glands?

  1. Control bacterial population in mouth
  2. Digestion of complex carbohydrates
  3. Lubrication of oral cavity
  4. Digestion of disaccharides

Answer

(4) Digestion of disaccharides

Solution

As per NCERT, saliva contains electrolytes, the enzymes salivary amylase and lysozyme, and mucus.

Lysozyme acts as an antibacterial agent and controls the bacterial population in the mouth, salivary amylase hydrolyses starch (a complex carbohydrate) into the disaccharide maltose, and mucus lubricates the oral cavity and helps to form the bolus.

Saliva has no enzyme that digests disaccharides; maltose, lactose and sucrose are digested in the small intestine by maltase, lactase and sucrase.
