hey there, hi hope this helps u
if so plz mark mine as the brainiest answer
Mouth
The oral cavity or the mouth contains salivary glands. The salivary gland secretes the enzyme lysozyme which has an antibacterial action.
The enzymes secreted by the mouth mainly provide protection against bacteria.
Enzymes
Ptyalin- Converts starch to simple soluble sugars
Amylase- Converts starch to soluble sugars
Betaine- Maintains cell fluid balance as osmolytes
Bromelain- Anti-inflammatory agent, tenderizes meat
Stomach
The enzymes released by the stomach are known as gastric enzymes.
Stomach secretes hydrochloric acid which kills bacteria and germs and provides an acid environment.
Enzymes
Pepsin- Breaks protein into small peptides
Gastric amylase- Degradation of starch
Gelatinase- Degradation of gelatin and collagen
Rennin- Conversion of liquid milk to solid particles
Gastric lipase- Degradation of butter fat
Pancreas
Pancreas is the main digestive gland of our body. The digestive enzymes of the pancreas breakdown carbohydrates and starch molecules to simple sugars.It functions both as an endocrine and exocrine gland.
Enzymes
Pancreatic lipase- Degrades triglycerides into fatty acids and glycerol
Phospholipase- Hydrolyzes phospholipids into fatty acids
Trypsin- Converts proteins to basic amino acids
Steapsin- Breakdown of triglycerides to glycerol and fatty acids
Chymotrypsin- Converts proteins to aromatic amino acids
Carboxypeptidase- Degradation of proteins to amino acids
Pancreatic amylase- Degradation of carbohydrates to simple sugars
Elastases- Degrade the protein elastin
Nucleases- Conversion of nucleic acids to nucleotides and nucleosides
Small Intestine
The final step of digestion is carried out by the small intestine. It contains a group of enzymes that breakdown the products undigested by the pancreas.The food gets converted to semi-solid form.
Enzymes
Sucrase- Converts sucrose to disaccharides and monosaccharides
Maltase- Converts maltose to glucose
Lactase- Converts lactose to glucose and galactose
Isomaltase- Converts maltose to isomaltose
