secretion produced by the liver‚ stored in the gall bladder and released into the small intestine. It acts as an emulsifying agent‚ physically breaking up large fat droplets into smaller ones to increase the surface area of food being digested. Amylase: enzyme which acts on carbohydrates Protease: enzyme which acts on proteins Lipase: enzyme which acts on lipids (fats) Villi: The finger-like projections that increase the surface area of the lining of the small intestine lining.

Chapter 7: Carbohydrates I. Carbohydrates A. Most abundant organic molecule in nature a) 3 major classes: Monosaccharides – simple sugar – polyhydroxy aldehyde or ketone; represent individual sugar Oligosaccharides – consist of short chains of monosaccharide units joined together by covalent bonds; 2-10 strings of sugar Polysaccharides – long chains having hundreds or thousands of monosaccharide units b) Functions: Provide energy thru oxidation – glucose oxidized for energy Supply carbon

multigrain bread provided me with carbohydrates. As I take a bite of the peanut butter and jelly sandwich I crush all three of the macronutrients with my teeth. The role of saliva helps moistens the food while a digestive enzyme in the saliva called salivary amylase (ptyalin) helps breaks down the complex carbohydrates mostly contained in the bread into simple sugars. Once the food has been sufficiently chewed‚ the tongue rolls it into a ball known as a bolus and pushes it into the pharynx. In a combination

Food is partly broken down by the process of chewing and by the chemical action of salivary enzymes (these enzymes are produced by the salivary glands and break down starch into smaller molecules). The tongue

mono-saccharide molecules which can be easily absorbed by the body. 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
