Enzymes found in human bodies are
Lipases: They remove the fats in the gut.
Amylase: It is present in the saliva. The role of amylase is to break down carbohydrates.
Maltase: These enzymes are found in the small intestine. It breaks down the sugar maltose into glucose.
Trypsin: These enzymes are present in the small intestine. The function of trypsin is to break proteins into amino acids.
Lactase: The function of lactase is to break down lactose into simpler sugars (glucose and galactose). Lactose is the sugar that is found in dairy products.

We can define enzymes as biocatalysts. It is important in biological processes like digestion, metabolism, and the synthesis of cellular components. If enzymes stop their functions, then the body can not generate enough proteins, which is important for survival. The examples of enzymes are lactase and amylase.

You must use the NCERT for the CBSE Class 12 board exams. The NCERT textbook is enough for understanding the Biomolecules. All concepts, definitions, and reactions asked in the exams are directly covered in the textbook. We have provided NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Chemistry, Biomolecules, as well as for better practice.
However, for competitive exams like NEET and JEE, while NCERT remains an important resource, students should also solve additional questions from reference books like MTG NCERT at Your Fingertips, NCERT Exemplar, or practice modules by coaching institutes. These help build speed, accuracy, and deeper conceptual clarity
