The stomach. the enzymes
enzymes breaks down food proteins into smaller molecules that can be carried by blood
Alpha amylase is the enzyme that breaks down starch into it's individual glucose monosaccharide molecules.
The term that identifies a reaction that breaks apart macromolecules is "hydrolysis." In hydrolysis, water molecules are used to break the bonds holding macromolecules together, resulting in the formation of smaller molecules or monomers.
Bile is the chemical which breaks up large fat globules into smaller droplets. It doesn't digest the lipid molecules; it just increases the surface area to aid enzymes in the small intestine.
The process that breaks up molecules into smaller units is called catabolism. Large molecules, such as nucleic acids, are broken down into smaller molecules, such as amino acids.
Digestion.
nuclear explosions or bacteria
Digestion breaks down fat, carbohydrates, and protein into smaller molecules that can be absorbed by your GI tract. Without it, no absorption --> malnutrition --> death
Chemical digestion
They are called enzymes.
Digestive System.
Catabolism
It breaks down the proteins into smaller molecules the body can use
The stomach. the enzymes
A protein decomposer is when an organism breaks down proteins into smaller parts. This can be done by using enzymes or amino acids.
