What are three places that chemical digestion take place in?
Were does chemical digestion take place
What are the chemical process in everyday living?
Examples: digestion, fuels burning, cooking, washing etc.
What are the functions of the chemical digestion in animals?
Chemical digestion begins in the mouth with the secretion of saliva from three pairs of salivary glands. Saliva contains the digestive enzyme salivary amylase.
What are the types of digestion?
Chemical digestion and mechanical digestion
Is digestion a physical or chemical change?
Its a chemical change.
What are three words that name things that help in digestion?
Saliva, amylase, mechanical and chemical digestion, muscles, mucus, stomach acid.
What type of digestion is produced by breaking down and chewing food?
Chemical digestion
Is pancreatic lipase mechanical or chemical digestion?
No, the pancreas is involved in chemical digestion, as it secretes enzymes which catalyze the breakdown of food molecules.
Where is the start of chemical digestion?
the start of chemical digestion is the mouth and ends in the small intestine. This is true and the saliva has the power of the chemical digestion
2 types of digestion are?
Mechanical Digestion (ex. chewing your food) and Chemical Digestion (ex. your spit breaking down the food). Those examples happen in the mouth, but both types happen elsewhere in the body, too.
Are chemical reactions useful?
yes some chemical reactions are harmful to us. as digestion of food, photosynthesis, decomposition of organic waste are some examples of the useful chemical reactions.
What is the mechanical digestion that prepares the food for the digestion?
Digestion can be mechanical or chemical. Mechanical digestion is the process of physically (i.e. not involving biochemical enzyme) breaking food down into smaller pieces, creating a greater surface area for chemical digestion to take place. Examples of mechanical digestion include the churning motion of your stomach and obviously, the chewing process of your mouth. Chemical digestion, on the other hand, requires the presences of enzymes to trigger chemical reaction and break the food particles down to simpler substances. Examples include the salivary amylase breaking down sugar, stomach acid and gastric enzymes breaking down proteins, and the lipase breaking down lipids in the small intestine.
