carbs Flashcards
complex carbohydrates
starch - amylase and amyolopectin
fiber - soluble and insoluble
-glycogen
simple carbohydrate
Disaccharides - lactose, maltose, sucrose
monosaccharides - glucose, galactose, fructose
digestible cho
starch - amylopectin
disaccrides - lactose, sucrose, fructose
what kind of starch is amylase
resistant starch
not digested or resistant to digestion CHO
fiber - soluble and insoluble
amylose
Monosaccharides - glucose, galactose, fructose
sucrose is the sweetest of the disaccharides because
its made of fructose and glucose
which monosaccharide is the sweetest
fructose
why are fruits sweeter than vegetables
because fruit have more fructose and sucrose
mechanical and chemical digestion happen both in the
mouth
amylase molecule is
large CHO molecules that are tightly packed together (straight line bonds)
isomaltase
breaks bonds at branches of amylopectin
maltase
breaks straight-line bonds
-breaks down maltose and small CHO molecules
sucrase breaks bond in
suncrose
lactase breaks the bond in
lactose
fiber is made up of
B,1,4 and glucose glucose bonds
role of mucosa cells in SI: digestion
brush border enzymes
-disaccharide digestion
role of mucosa cells in SI: absorption
mucosa cells in SI absorp all nutrients
what does secretin do
neutralizes HCl
