The first step of digestion is the moment we put the food in mouth. As we chew the food‚ the saliva released by the salivary glands of the mouth starts its work of breaking up of the carbohydrates. This is possible because of the presence of a special enzyme named amylase in the saliva. Then we swallow the food and it goes to the stomach. Here the digestive acids secreted by the glands of the stomach play a major role in processing the carbohydrate molecules further. The digestive enzyme of the stomach

starts by the action of mastication‚ a form of mechanical digestion where the teeth allow the chewing of food to aid in the digestive process and the wetting contact of saliva ("Wikipedia.com"‚ 2013). Saliva‚ a liquid secreted by the salivary glands‚ contains salivary amylase‚ an enzyme which starts the digestion of starch in the food. After undergoing mastication and starch digestion‚ the food will be in the form of a small‚ round slurry mass called a bolus. It will then travel down the esophagus

It is cuboidal cells that are in glands and parts of the kidney tubule and outer covering of ovaries. The function of this tissue type is secretion. Simple columnar epithelium is next and it is in the lining of the digestive tract and in ducts of many glands. Its function is to secrete and absorb from the stomach to the anus. Ciliated simple columnar epithelium is in the linings of the bronchi
