digestive system
The process of changing food into simpler substances with the help of enzymes is called digestion. Enzymes, which are biological catalysts, break down complex molecules in food into smaller, absorbable units. For example, amylase breaks down starch into sugars, while proteases break down proteins into amino acids. This enzymatic action occurs primarily in the digestive system, allowing nutrients to be efficiently absorbed into the bloodstream for use by the body.
The digestion of chicken broast in the alimentary canal primarily involves several enzymes. In the stomach, pepsin breaks down proteins into smaller peptides. In the small intestine, pancreatic enzymes such as trypsin and chymotrypsin further digest proteins, while amylase breaks down carbohydrates, and lipase digests fats. Additionally, brush border enzymes in the intestinal lining continue the digestion of carbohydrates and peptides into absorbable units.

Both starches and celluloses.
The International System of Units
International System of Units (SI)
The system of units used in the United States is called the United States customary units or US customary units. This system includes units such as feet, pounds, and gallons.
The system of units used for measurements in chemistry is called the International System of Units (SI). It is a globally recognized system that provides a consistent set of units for measuring physical quantities.
Standard units are used for measurmen as there is a system called the SI units and that is considered as the international system of units that is why we use standard units for measurment .
The units of measurement for electric charge in the International System of Units are coulombs.
No, not all metric units are part of the International System of Units (SI). The SI is a coherent system of units derived from the metric system, but it is more specific and defined, and not all metric units are included in the SI.
