Production amylase
The first step in chemical digestion occurs in the mouth with the enzyme amylase breaking down carbohydrates into simpler sugars.
The breakdown of starch into sugars in the mouth.
It is the first step in the digestion system. It uses chemical digestion by using the sylivia to brake down food and uses mechanical digestion by using the teeth to do the exact same job.
by chewing
In the mouth. Your teeth chew food, breaking down fibres, and your saliva also begins chemical break down.
It's called 'masticate' or 'mastication', which is the chewing process and is the first step in the digestion process.
False, it is the first step in digestion. ---------------------- No - but the above is not true either, the small intestine comes after the stomach and mouth and digestion starts in the mouth.
Mechanical digestion must come first because it helps break down food
Saliva contains the enzyme amylase, which is used in the first step of digestion to break down carbohydrates into simpler sugars.
The first step of the process is the digestion.
yes, it is in fact.
