Where are Proteins are digested in?
In the stomach; where the breakdown enzyme (pepsin) is at an optimum pH of 1-2 When broken down they form amino acids which are absorbed into the bloodstream by the ileum of the small intestine.
What happens to the food in the stomach?
food in the stomach is digested in order to Increase its surface area of the food to be easily absorbed in the small intestines. What happens to food once it has entered the stomach is that gastric juices are secreted to help break down the food even more. In the stomach, food is mixed and broken up and is absorbed into the bloodstream.
Where are proteins digested in your body?
In the stomach; where the breakdown enzyme (pepsin) is at an optimum pH of 1-2 When broken down they form amino acids which are absorbed into the bloodstream by the ileum of the small intestine.
Why can't proteins be absorbed into the bloodstream?
They are too large and have to be broken down into amino acids.
Organ were digested food is absorbed?
Food is broken down or digested in the stomach but the nutrients are not absorbed in the stomach. Nutrients from digested food are primarily absorbed in the small intestine.
What happens in the alimentary canal?
Nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream. Starch is broken down by enzymes. Macromolecules are broken down.
What happens when a biological organic compound such as proteins and carbohydrates are broken down or synthesized?
They are broken down into simpler molecules by the digestive system so they can be absorbed into the bloodstream.
What happens to the food we eat in the stomach and digestive system?
The proteins are broken down to amino acids and get absorbed. Carbohydrates are broken down to glucose (and fructose) and are absorbed. Fats are broken down to fatty acids and glycerol and absorbed. Minerals and vitamins are absorbed as such.
Is Alcohol burned up by the stomach?
Alcohol gets absorbed in the stomach walls, but about 80% goes straight to the bloodstream. ANSWER Alcohol is metabolized or broken down by the liver. The liver breaks down almost all drugs into a less harmful substance (metabolite) before it is excreted in the urine.
How do the cells in multicellular organisms get resourceso stay alive?
Larger, multicelluar organisms ingest food which is broken down in the intestinal tract. The products of digestion are absorbed from the alimentary canal (stomach, intestines) and enter the bloodstream where the "resources" are distributed to the cells.
What happen to the food you have eaten it goes to the stomach?
It is digested by the acids in your stomach and then moved to your small intestine. In the small intestine the broken down food is carried into your bloodstream.

What components are nitrogenous waste made up of?
Protein is digested in the stomach with the help of hydrochloric acid in the stomach and some enzymes. it is first broken down into its component amino acids, then absorbed into the bloodstream, and in the process, producing two classes of waste products Non- nitrogenous (C02 and h20) and nitrogenous waste.
