Answers
liver: Its main job is to filter the blood coming from the digestive tract, before passing it to the rest of the body.
Gall bladder: its main function is to store and concentrate bile,a yellow - brown digestive enzyme produced by the liver, that helps in the digestion of fats.
Villi: It helps by increasing the surface area the intestine has for absorption.
Pancreatic juice :The pancreatic juice contains enzymes that complete the digestion of starch called pancreatic amylase.
Gastric juice: Its function is to break down proteins into polypeptides during digestion.
Bile juice: It helps the body to absorb the breakdown products of fat in the gut. Bile salts bind with lipids to form micelles. This is then absorbed through the intestinal mucosa.
Trypsin: Its function is to convert food proteins into amino acids for absorption..
Lipase:It breaks down dietary fats into smaller molecules called fatty acids and glycerol.
Intestinal juice:It contains hormones, digestive enzymes, mucus, substances to neutralize hydrochloric acid coming from the stomach.
In the mouth, stomach, and small intestine, the mucosa contains tiny glands that produce juices to help digest food. Two solid organs, the liver and the pancreas, produce digestive juices that reach the intestine through small tubes.
