#salivary amylase MCQ

2 public questions tagged with this topic.

End products of salivary amylase action include all EXCEPT:

Pick D: Glucose. Thinking about Digestive System in a practical way — what the structure does, or what the process achieves — leads you here. Clinically and academically, the same logic shows up again and again: the stem is asking for the statement that does not fit the usual rule, and Glucose is that exception in the context of Digestive System. Hence Glucose is correct. Treat this as a building block for the rest of Digestive System; neighbouring topics often reuse the same principle. Keep a one-line summary card for this idea and revisit it before the paper; short, repeated review beats long cramming sessions.

Ref: Animal physiology is Unit 7 of the CSIR NET Life Science Syllabus, covering core body systems. It accounts for roughly 10% of the total marks in Sections B and C.

Salivary amylase initiates digestion of:

Answer: C) Starch. For Digestive System, once you lock onto the key mechanism or definition, Starch is the clear fit. If you restate the concept in your own words, Starch is the option that correctly names the structure, process, or principle asked for in Digestive System. So Starch is the clean, accurate selection. If a similar stem appears later, start from the same core fact and you will land on the same kind of answer. In class notes, highlight this same phrase next to the related diagram so the wording and the picture reinforce each other. When you practise, cover the choices first, write Starch from memory, then reveal the letter — that habit builds real recall for Digestive System.
