What are the names and jobs of the digestive enzymes in the mouth stomach and small intestines?
Amylase- digests starches Cellulase- digests fibers Lactase- digests dairy products Lipases- digests fats Maltase- digests starch & grains Proteases- digests proteins Sucrase- digests sugars
What does fats and sugars do to your body?
They release energy after the body digests it and the leftover fats build up.
What pancreatic enzyme digests fats?
Pancreatic ;ipase helps in the digestion of fats to fatty acids and glycerol. Fats are emulsified by the bile produced by the liver producing fat globules. The fat globules are further digested by lipase to form fatty acids and glycerol. Fats are digested at the small intestine.
Which type of enzyme digests fat and what does it digest fat into?
Proteases are enzymes that digest proteins. Examples of proteases that are used in the human body include Pepsin (an enzyme in the stomach), and Trypsin (an enzyme in the small intestine) which digest proteins into amino acids, or polypeptide chains composed of amino acids.
Which organs help digest fats?
The liver secretes bile which helps in fat absorption.
What breaks down fat?
Fats are made up of lipid molecules. Lipase is the enzyme that breaks up the lipid molecules.
What produces juice that travels to the small intestine and digests proteins starches and fats?
the pancreas
What do enxymes react upon?
Enzymes react upon PROTIENS, CARBOHYDRATES and FATS mostly. There are three enzymes dispersed from the PANCREAS; Lipase which digests fats and breaks them down so there is a lesser amount of fat in your blood stream, Amylase (is also the enzyme in human saliva) digests carbohydrates found in foods such as potatoes and pasta and Protease which is found in meats and then broken down and used as building blocks to build and maintain the bodies' tissues.
