Need to study Flashcards
Saturation
Max number of H atoms without a carbon double bond
SFA
Does not have double bonds between the long hydrocarbon chain
Unsaturated
addition of a double bond between the long hydrocarbon chain where 2 hydrogen atoms are missing
Polyunsaturated
When there is more than 4 hydrogen atoms missing
Lingual lipase
-breaks down fat in mouth
- breaks down lipids
Gastric lipase
Hydrolysis a small amount of fat
What breaks down emulsified fat
pancreatic and intestinal lipase
Albumin
carried short/medium chained fatty acids to the liver by portal vein
Chylomicrons
transports lipid from intestinal cells into the body
VLDL
-transport lipids to adipose and muscle tissue
- made up of triglycerides
LDL
carry cholesterol from the liver to the body
- made up of cholesterol
HDL
transport cholesterol back into the liver
- made up of protein
3 functions of sterols
- emulsify fat
- chemical messenger
- bone metabolism
GIP
produced by duodenum
- inhibits gastric motility and secretion of acid
Secretin
hormone produced by the duodenum when stomach acid is below pH 4.5
Gastrin
Hormone produced by G cells
promotes the release of HCL and controls the release of pepsin
CCK
hormone produced by the duodenum
stimulates the release of digestive enzymes due to lipid-rich chyme
Digestion of carbs in the pancreas
pancreatic amylase
breaks down starch into small poly and maltose
Insulin
beta cells from the pancreas to break down glucose in blood
Glucogenesis
production of glucose from amino acids in the liver
