Starch and glycogen can both be hydrolyzed by acids and enzymes to break them down into glucose. Acid hydrolysis produces glucose directly from starch, while enzymatic hydrolysis by amylase produces maltose from starch. 3. Testing for the products of hydrolysis involves using iodine, which forms complexes with starch bu
