Which organ secretes a chemical compound which emulsifies fats and makes the food alkaline?
The small intestine contains an enzyme called peptidase, which works best in the alkaline environment of that organ (pH of about 8.) This helps further break down food that has already passed through the acidic environment of the stomach. Enzymes are protein catalysts which speed up the digestion process.
Which organ in the body contains a strong acid?
The stomach contains a strong acid called hydrochloric acid. It plays a crucial role in the digestion process by breaking down food particles.
What organ contains large amounts of hydrochloric acid?
The stomach contains large amounts of hydrochloric acid, which helps in the digestion of food by breaking down proteins and killing harmful bacteria.

What organ does digestion first begin began at?

In Which organ does the starch turn into sugar?
Starch is primarily converted into sugar in the small intestine. This process begins in the mouth, where salivary amylase starts breaking down starch into simpler sugars. However, the majority of starch digestion occurs in the small intestine, where pancreatic amylase further breaks it down into maltose and other sugars, which are then absorbed into the bloodstream.
Organ where chemical digestion ends in fats?
fatty acidsglycerol
Organ responsible for chemical digestion and absorbtion of food?
The small intestine is the organ responsible for both chemical digestion and absorption of nutrients from food. Enzymes and bile break down the food, while nutrients are absorbed through the small intestine's lining into the bloodstream for distribution to the body's cells.
What organ carries out most chemical digestion?
The pancreas secretes digestive enzymes that help break down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in the small intestine. This organ plays a crucial role in the chemical digestion of food.
In which human organ would the chemical digestion of a piece of meat normally began?
