Answer:
After food enters your stomach, the stomach muscles mix the food and liquid with digestive juices. The stomach slowly empties its contents, called chyme, into your small intestine.
2. Protein digestion occurs in the stomach and duodenum in which 3 main enzymes, pepsin secreted by the stomach and trypsin and chymotrypsin secreted by the pancreas, break down food proteins into polypeptides that are then broken down by various exopeptidases and dipeptidases into amino acids.
3. The final stage of the digestive system is the colon (large intestine) which absorbs water and salts before the remains are passed out of the rectum as faeces. The colon can also help to absorb remaining carbohydrate and some fats.
Explanation:
Answer:
the gastric pit opening of the stomach has five types of cells
surface cells secrete mucin and HCO³-
neck mucous cells secrete mucin and HCO³-
parietal or oxyntic cells secrete hcl and CIF
peptic cells or chief cells secrete pepsinogen, progastric lipase and pro rennine.
gastric cells secrete gastrin
Explanation:
pepsin breaks down protein,
gastric lipase breaks down faaty acids and glycerol
rennine act upon casein
Hcl is responsible for denaturation of proteins.
