What else can I help you with?
During digestion carbohydrates are converted by enzymes into what?
Glucose
When protein compounds are catalyzed what do they do to the chemical reaction during digestion?
Neutralize chemical reactions during digestion
Chemical compounds that are converted to glycogen when broken down during digestion?
carbohydrates
Where does protein digestion?
in your stomach the acids dissolve the protein and therefore ends digestion
What could be used as a substrate when testing for the digestion of protein to peptides?
Gelatin or casein can be used as substrates for testing protein digestion to peptides. Gelatin is a denatured form of collagen, while casein is a milk protein. Both substrates can be broken down by proteolytic enzymes into smaller peptides during digestion experiments.
Why do peanuts carry energy?
Peanuts contain high levels of unsaturated fats, protein, and carbohydrates, all of which are sources of energy for the body when consumed. The fats in peanuts provide a concentrated form of energy, while the protein and carbohydrates are converted into energy during digestion and metabolism.
Where does the protein digestion start?
the digestion of proteins begin in the stomach.
What assists the metabolization of protein?
Enzymes in the body help to metabolize protein. The process occurs during digestion and as the food flows through the intestines.
How is protein converted to glucose in the body?
Protein can be converted to glucose in the body through a process called gluconeogenesis. During this process, amino acids from protein are broken down and converted into glucose in the liver. This can happen when the body needs additional energy and glucose is not readily available from carbohydrates.
End product of protein digestion?
End product of digestion of protein is amino acid
What is the digestion time of whey protein?
The digestion time of whey protein is typically around 1-2 hours.
What is the chemical equation for the digestion of protein?
protein ----> amino acids
