    parts. THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM Digestion is a process of breaking down large complex food substances into simple molecules that can be used by each cell. Most of the foods of organisms consist of carbohydrates‚ fats‚ and proteins. Each of these large molecules acted upon by special kinds of digestive systems that speed up digestion by hydrolysis or splitting of molecules. Food also includes smaller molecules such as water‚ minerals and vitamins. DIGESTION IN PLANTS Plants do not have

    Enzymes are protein‚ they are used to catalyse metabolisms in all organisms. They break down complex molecules and build up complex molecules from simple molecules‚ these two processes are catabolic reaction and anabolic reaction respectively. Enzymes are needed in these two processes to catalyse releasing and taking up ATP molecules. Different sequence of amino acid produces different structure of protein‚ which determines the property of protein‚ thus each kind of enzymes has its unique active

    ingested‚ poultry may also swallow small rocks. These rocks aid in the grinding of harder feed particles in the gizzard. Feed passes from the gizzard into the small intestine‚ where additional enzymes are added and digestion occurs. The small intestine also serves to absorb digestion products (proteins‚ carbohydrates‚ and fats). You should notice in the photo above that the first part of the small intestine loops around the pancreas (called the duodenal loop). The pancreas secretes digestive enzymes

    When a dog encounters food‚ saliva starts to pour from the salivary glands located in the back of its oral cavity. This saliva is needed in order to make the food easier to swallow. The fluid also contains enzymes that break down certain compounds in the food. In humans‚ for example‚ saliva contains the enzyme amylase‚ an effective processor of starch. Pavlov became interested in studying reflexes when he saw that the dogs drooled without the proper stimulus
