2.)In the degradation of maltose to two glucose molecules:
maltose is the subtrate.
water is the substrate.
maltase is the product.
maltose is the product.
the enzyme, maltase, is the subtrate.

| 60 | .012 | .022 | .026 |
| 90 | .017 | .026 | .034 |
| 120 | .020 | .031 | .039 |
Solution
1) The velocity of the enzyme action increases proportionately with the concentration of enzyme.
2) a. Maltose is the substrate
Maltose is formed as an intermediate product in acid hydrolysis of starch. It is split into two molecules of glucose by enzyme maltase of the intestinal juice before absorption.
