1, starch
2,protein
3,fat

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Starch- mouth

2. Protein- stomach

3. Fat- small intestines

Explanation:

Answer:

1. Starch- mouth through the salivary amylase released by saliva

2. Protein- stomach through hydrochloric acid and enzymes called proteases which breaks it down into smaller chains of amino acids.

3. Fat- small intestines. Your liver produces bile that helps you digest fats and certain vitamins. This bile is stored in the gallbladder. These digestive juices are delivered to your small intestine through ducts where it all works together to complete the fat breakdown.  During this process, fat and cholesterol are packaged into tiny particles called chylomicrons.
