What are the chemicals in your salivary glands that break down food?
The oral cavity has limited digestion of carbohydrates and lipids (amylase and lipase).The tongue is involved in secretion of mucins and the enzyme lingual lipase (breaks down some fats).The parotid salivary glands produce a serous secretion containing large amounts of salivary amylase (carbohydrates).The submandibular salivary glands secrete a mixture of buffers, glycoproteins called mucins, and salivary amylase.
Cells in the Salivary glands and pancreas that secrete large amounts of proteins have a highly developed what?
Rough ER- to create the proteins
Racemic mixtures and meso compounds?
solution containing equal amounts of enantiomers.it is optically inactive.
Which process is not part of cellular respiration pathway that produces large amounts od ATP in a cell?
fermentation
Adrenal medulla produces what large amounts of the hormone?

What part of the digestive system provides initial digestion?
The oral cavity begins limited digestion of carbohydrates and lipids.The tongue secretes mucins and the enzyme lingual lipase. The parotid salivary glands produce a serous secretion containing large amounts of salivary amylase, an enzyme that breaks down starches (complex carbohydrates).Cells of the submandibular glands secrete a mixture of buffers, glycoproteins called mucins, and salivary amylase.
What are the role of mouth and in buccal cavity in the digestion of food?
The oral cavity with the teeth and tongue chew and mix food with saliva which has limited digestion of carbohydrates and lipids (amylase and lipase). The tongue is involved in secretion of mucins and the enzyme lingual lipase (breaks down some fats). The parotid salivary glands produce a serous secretion containing large amounts of salivary amylase (carbohydrates). The submandibular salivary glands secrete a mixture of buffers, glycoproteins called mucins, and salivary amylase. Both mechanical and chemical digestion occur in the buccal cavity (mouth).
Containing large amounts of nutrients for the number of calories provided?

What is the name of the enzymes present in the saliva and what type of food it acts on?
Salivary amylase. This enzyme helps to turn starch into a sugar called maltose...when your food gets into the small intestine, more amylase is made by the pancreas also.Another enzyme called maltase, turns all this maltose into glucose. Glucose is then absorbed into the blood.
