    This creates a slightly basic environment‚ meaning the semiliquid becomes alkaline. This is when the intestinal digestion begins. The pancreas secrets pancreatic fluid into the intestine. This fluid contains‚ Amylase‚ Trypsin‚ and Lipase. Amylase is released first in the fluid. Amylase breaks down starches into their component sugars. Trypsin hydrolyzes polypeptides‚ converting them into amino acids. Lipase breaks down fats into glycerol and fatty acids. The bile acids produced by the liver act

    stomach and the intestine this is by the churning action of the muscular walls. Chemical digestion is by a series of specific enzymes in which are produced within numerous regions of the alimentary canal. The salivary glands produce an enzyme called amylase which breaks down polysaccharides into simpler sugars. These enzymes then hydrolyse the chemicals within the larger food molecules by breaking them down into very tiny constituent molecules. In the mouth the larger particles of food are broken
