Answer 1

Answer:

HI

Explanation:

1-Trypsin – found in the small intestine, breaks proteins down into amino acids. Lactase – also found in the small intestine, breaks lactose.

2-Peristalsis is a series of wave-like muscle contractions that moves food to different processing stations in the digestive tract. The process of peristalsis begins in the esophagus when a bolus of food is swallowed.

3-Stomach secretions are made up of hydrochloric acid, several enzymes, and a mucus coating that protects the lining of your stomach. Hydrochloric acid helps your body to break down, digest, and absorb nutrients such as protein.

4-The small intestine is designed in the shape of villi,also called as microvilli.

Answer 2

Answer:

2. The downward movement of the muscles in the food pipe while swallowing a food particle is called peristaltic movement .

3. The Hydrochloric acid in the stomach breaks large food particles to simpler food particles and even kills the bacteria present in the food .

4. It has many small finger like - projections called villi which increases the surface area and helps in maximum absorption of nutrients from the food.
