You're close, but there's a slight misunderstanding in the question.

Here's the breakdown:

* Amylase is an enzyme that breaks down starch (a complex carbohydrate).

* Maltase is a different enzyme that breaks down maltose (a simple sugar).

Here's what happens:

1. Amylase acts on starch, breaking it down into smaller units called maltose.

2. Maltase then acts on the maltose, breaking it down into even smaller units of glucose, a simple sugar that the body can readily absorb.

So, amylase doesn't create maltase, but it does create maltose, which is then broken down by maltase.

Let me know if you have any more questions!
