Q

How is carbohydrate digested by the mouth?

A

Carbohydrate digestion begins in the mouth. The salivary Glands in the mouth secrete saliva, which helps to moisten the food. The food is then chewed while the salivary glands also release the enzyme salivary amylase, which begins the process of breaking down the polysaccharides in the carbohydrate food

Q

How is carbohydrate digested by the Stomach?

A

After the carbohydrte food is chewed chewed it is swallowed and passed through the oesophagus. The mixture enters the stomach where it is known as chyme. There is no further digestion of chyme as the stomach produces acid which destroys becteria in the food and stops the action of salivary amylase

Q

How is carbohydrate digested by the Pancreas and small intestine?

A

After being in the stomach the chyme enters the beginnined portion of the small intestine or the duodenum. In responce to chyme being in the duodenum the pancreaas releases the enzyme pancreatic amylase which breaks the polysaccharide down into a disaccharide a chain of only two sugars linked together. The small intestine then produces enzymes called lactase, sucrase and maltase, which breaks down the disacchrides into monosaccharides. The monosaccharides are single sugars that are then absorbed in the small intestine

Q

How is carbohydrate digested by the large intestine?

A

Carbohydrate that were not digested and absorbed by the small intestine reach the colon where thy repeatidly broken down by intestinal bacteria. Fibre which cannot be digested like other carbohydrates, is excreted with faeces or partly digested by the intestinal bacteria

Q

How is protien digested by the mouth to stomach?

A

Chewing your protien rich food well increases the surface area of the food particles and allows digestion to occure more quickly. Once the food reaches your stomach, it encounters a harshly acidic enviroment. Your stomach acid denatures or unfolds the protiens in your food so digestive enzymes can act on it, it activates a protien specific enzyme pepsin that breaks the protien into smaller molcules called peptides and it inactivates anu potentially harmful microorganisms you may have ingested along with your food. The peptides in your stomach now move to you small intestine

Q

How is protien digested by the stomach to small intestine?

A

To neutralize the acidic food particles coming from your stomach your pancreas secretes a bicarbonate buffer into your small intestine. The nuetral enviroment of this portion of your gut encorages the protien digesting enzym protease orginating from your both your pancreas and the cells lining your small intestine. These enzymes work on the food peptides systematically breaking them down into even smaller peptides and then snipping off the amino acids one by one. At this point the absorpitive cells of your small intestine carry the single amino acids to your bloodstream and then on to the cells throughout your body

Q

How is fat digested by the mouth to stomach?

A

The process of digested starts in the mouth although fat does not get broken down at this point. Mechanical digestion occurs as your teeth grind food and break it apart into smaller pieces. Chemical digestion takes place as lingial lipase an enzyme in your salvia begins to emulsify fat and saliva moistens the food to make it easier to swallow. When the food reaches your stomach the muscles there begin to churn and move to further break it down. Once it leaves the stomach the food has become a semi liquid substance referred to as chyme. Gastic lypase breaks down fats into fatty acids

Q

How is fat digested by the small intestine ?

A

The small intestine is the main site of absorption of the nutrients and the digestion of fat. When chyme enters the duedenum the upper portion of the small intestine hormones signals the gallbladers to release bile to emulsify fat. At the same time the pancreas located just underneath the stomach, secretes bicarbonate ions which nuetralize the PH of the chyme entering the small intestine and lipases enzymes that break down fat. Lipases go to work breaking down fat molecule into fatty acids and glycerol which pass through the small intestine and begin to be absorbed through the villi into the blood stream.
