Question

If you hold a salty cracker in your mouth long enough, it will begin to taste sweet. What is responsible for this change in taste? Sucrase breaks down sucrose into two glucose atoms that taste sweet. Amylase breaks down the starch in the cracker into glucose monomers that taste sweet. Energy from the sun helps to break down the bonds over time releasing sugars from macromolecules. Phosphorylase breaks down glycogen into fructose monomers that provide the sweet flavor.
