Which enzymes are responsible for the final chemical breakdown of carbohydrates and amino acids and nucleic acids?
Trypsin and chymotrypsin break down proteins. Lipase breaks down lipids. Amylase breaks down starches and carbohydrates
What are facts about lysosomes?
they contain enzymes that break down lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins.
Cell organelle that breaks down lipids and carbohydrates and releases engery?
the ribosome.. :)
Carbohydrates lipids and proteins are types of carbon compound that are broken down to produce what?
Carbohydrates, lipids and proteins are types of carbon compound that are broken to produce simple molecules like carbon-dioxide and water.
Which is not a food material normally used broken down to yield energy carbohydrates lipids proteins nucleic acids?
lipids
What are the 4 main nutrients?
There are commonly know to be only 3 main nutrients which are carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids (fats). Lipids are broken down into fatty acids and glycerol. Proteins are broken down into amino acids, and carbohydrates are broken down into simple sugars like glucose.
What type of enzyme are digestive enzyme?
things like amylase which breaks down carbohydrates and lipase which breaks down fat/lipids. these are some types of digestive enzymes
What digest and recycles the cell's used components by breaking down proteins nucleic acids lipids and carbohydrates?
lysosomes
What do plants store in its tissues and breaks them down when it needs energy?
Carbohydrates, proteins and fatty acids
What is a class or group of enzymes that break down carbohydrates?
Carbohydrase breaks down starch-Amylase breaks down glucose into fructose (sweeter; useful for diabetics)-Isomerase breaks down proteins-Protease breaks down fats-Lipase
What are the three digestive enzymes that break down carbohydrates fats and proteins?
Complex molecules are broken down into simple molecules by the action of specialised proteins called enzymes. The three digestive enzymes are:amylases, which act on the carbohydratesproteases, which act on the proteinslipases, which act on the lipids
What enzymes work in the stomach?
Amylase breaks down starch into sugar Lipase breaks down lipids into fatty acid chains and glycerol. Protease breaks down proteins And carbohydrase breaks down carbohydrates. All four work during digestion and people with cf can't secrete these enzymes which is why they have malabsorption and are undernourished
