The digestion of starch begins in the mouth during mastication. The ptyalin enzyme (an amylase) converts the starch to sugar .

The Small Intestine.
Mouth
The digestion of fat will begin in the small intestine, whereas the digestion of starch which begin in the mouth (the mouth contains the enzyme amylase, which helps break down starch)
Hydrolysis. This process uses water to break down molecules such as starch.
Stages in the hydrolysis of starch: starch -> soluble starch -> amylodextrin -> erythrodextrin -> achrodextrin -> maltose -> glucose
In the mouth.
