Question

Q5. Look at the pictures of the food items given below and write
what happens to them when the digestion gets completed
in the small intestine.
Bread
Ghee
Egg
​

Answer 1

bread

Gastric juice is only able to digest proteins, and in about two hours and a half a slice of bread is ready to leave the stomach. The various digestive fluids of the intestine soon complete the digestion of the starch and protein and the small quantity of fat contained in bread, and then absorption into the blood takes place.

Ghee

Ghee enhances the absorption in the small intestine and decreases the acidic pH of our gastrointestinal tract

Egg

The stomach empties the chyme containing the broken down egg pieces into the small intestine, where the majority of protein digestion occurs. The pancreas secretes digestive juice that contains more enzymes that further break down the protein fragments.

Answer 2

Bread is rich in carbohydrates so they get completed in stomach itself but it gets fully absorbed in small intestine and it provides energy as soon as it gets digested
Ghee is rich in fats so they get digested only in small intestine, when it is done it provides heat and energy to the body
Egg is rich in proteins and they are digested in small intestine and produces protein and strengthens the muscles
