The role of salivary amylase in the digestion of starches remains controversial. In the absence of pancreatic amylase‚ the key enzyme for starch digestion‚ salivary amylase may well represent a potential compensatory alternate pathway for the digestion of amylose‚ amylopectin‚ and glycogen. Clinically significant depression of pancreatic amylase occurs in chronic pancreatitis‚ pancreatic resection‚ pancreatic neoplasm‚ cystic fibrosis‚ and other causes of pancreatic insufficiency.

Biology Form Four Digestion Digestion is the process by which food is broken down from complex insoluble substances into simple soluble substances. There are two types of digestion – chemical digestion and mechanical digestion. Mechanical digestion involves breaking up large pieces of food into smaller pieces. This provides a large surface area for the action of enzymes on food. There is no change to the chemical composition of food during mechanical digestion. Mechanical digestion occurs in the

The first half of module seven discussed protein digestion‚ absorption‚ and metabolism; while the second half focused on pathological stress and kidney disease. Protein digestion occurs in the stomach and small intestine. When a protein reaches the stomach it is denatured by hydrochloric acid. Once the protein is digested pepsin breaks apart the denatured protein into peptides. Peptides move into the small intestine where they encounter an enzyme that digest the peptides into di- or tripeptides‚
