What is a single thin layer of endothelium called?
tunica intima
What enzyme is released when fats and proteins reach the duodenum?
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.
What is a chain of two amino acids called?
They are called peptides while longer ones are called polypeptides.
What is the primary role of pepsin in digestion?
Pepsin breaks apart proteins to form smaller particles called peptides. Peptides are more easily digestible by the smaller intestine
Inactive protein containing one or more inhibitory peptides is called?
pro-protein
Simple squamous tissue that lines the heart blood vessels and lymphatic vessels is called what?
it is called Endothelium (endothelial layer) composed of simple squamous epithelium forming a countinuous barrier.

Are endorphins generated in the body during exercise?
There are certain endorphins that are released during vigorous exercise. These endorphins are called endogenous opioid peptides. These endorphins are also present in love.
What is the primary role of pepsin-in digestion?
Pepsin breaks apart proteins to form smaller particles called peptides. Peptides are more easily digestible by the smaller intestine

How are glycosidic linkages and peptides bonds alike?
They are both formed by a process called condensation
What tissues lines the interior of blood vessels?
The innermost layer of epithelial cells of a blood vessel is called endothelium.
What are digested proteins called?
Proteins are obtained from nutrients of food. They starts to digest in stomach by proteases such as pepsin, trypsin in to peptides. These small peptides later digested further to form amino acids after complete digestion.
