Summary of Chemical Digestion Chart Flashcards
what are the places carbohydrate digestion occurs
small intestine and mouth
what 3 enzymes are involved in carbohydrate digestion
salivary amylase, pancreatic amylase and disaccharidases
where is all digested material absorbed
small intestine
what is the product of carbohydrates after being mixed with salivary amylase
maltose and other disaccharides
what is the product of carbohydrates after being mixed with pancreatic amylase
maltose and other disaccharides
what is the product of carbohydrates after being mixed with disaccharidases
individual forming monosaccharides
in which organ is pancreatic amylase used for carbohydrate digestion
small intestine
in which organ is disaccharidases used for carbohydrate digestion
small intestine
where does carbohydrate digestion through salivary amylase occur
mouth
where does fat digestion occur
stomach and duodenum
what 3 substances are involved in fat digestion
gastric lipase, pancreatic lipase, and bile
what does gastric lipase break fats into
3 fatty acids and glyceral
where does the digestion of fats in the presence of gastric lipase occur
stomach
what does gastric lipase break fats into
3 fatty acids and glycerol
where does the digestion of fats in the presence of pancreatic lipase occur
duodenum
what does pancreatic lipase break fats into
fatty acids and glycerol
what does bile to fats
it emulsifys them
where is fats in the presence of bile found
duodenum
where are proteins digested
sotmach and small intestine
what enzyme digests proteins in the stomach?
pepsinogen which is converted to pepsin in the presence of HCL
what does pepsin digest proteins into
dipeptdides and polypeptides
what enzyme digests proteins in the small intestine
enterokinase which converts trypsinogen into trypsin
what does trypsin do to proteins
converts them into peptides and amino acids
