Question

Describe the mechanism of digestion of fats proteins and carbohydrates in human beings

Answer 1

A significant amount of digestion occurs in the small intestine. Bile from the gallbladder neutralizes chyme, making it alkaline. Bile salts emulsify fats and oils into droplets, allowing enzymes to begin the chemical digestion of fats. Pancreatic juice containing a mixture of enzymes also enters the small intestine. These enzymes include proteases to break down proteins, lipases that digest fats and more amylase to finish splitting carbohydrates. Fats are broken down into fatty acids and glycerol, proteins into peptides and amino acids, and carbohydrates become simple sugars such as glucose and fructose.
