Lipase is released from the pancreas and is secreted into the duodenal part of the small intestine. It acts on emulsified fats (when ) to produce fatty acids and glycerol.

The protease pepsin is also released from the pancreas into the duodenum and acts on proteins to produce either Amino Acids or Peptides.

Another protease called trypsin is released from the pancreas into the duodenum and acts on Peptides to produce Amino Acids.

Why is it important that an enzyme is stabilised?

it is important that an enzyme is stabilized because... a) the enzyme reduces the energy required to reach the highest energy of the reaction b) therefore the reduction of activation energy increases the number of reactant molecules with enough energy to reach the activation energy and form the product. c) the enzymes can collide faster with the substrate (also known as lock and key)


What helps by producing some digestive juices called bile?

You have bile salts in the bile. The bile salts emulsify the fat into fine particles. The surface area of the fat get greatly increased. The fat splitting enzyme called as lipase get chance to split the fat into fatty acids and glycerol.


How does increased surface area affect the action of an enzyme?

the greater the surface area the easier it is for them to reach and react with substrates


What effect do acidic and basic solutions have on enzyme moleculues?

pH - denatures the enzyme by altering the charges on the enzyme. This will affect the structure of the enzyme and its ability to function. Heat - will denature the enzyme by breaking its bonds. This will stop the enzyme from being able to bond to a specific substrate molecule. Cold - not enough energy to reach minimum amount of activation energy needed to undergo reaction. The enzyme will not be able to react on the substrate.
