What are the 4 enzymes of the digested system?
Proteases and peptidases spril proteins into amino acids lipases split fat into three fatty acids glycerol, carbohydrases split carbohydrates nucleases split nucleic acids into nucleotides
What Digestive glands do frog have?
Frogs have three main types of digestive glands: mucous glands in the mouth to aid in swallowing, gastric glands in the stomach to produce digestive enzymes, and hepatic glands in the liver to release bile for fat digestion.
Glands located within the digestive tube include?
Examples of glands located within the digestive tube include the salivary glands, which secrete saliva in the mouth; gastric glands, found in the stomach and produce gastric juices; and the pancreas, which secretes digestive enzymes and bicarbonate into the small intestine.
Why are protein digestive enzymes produced and released in an inactive form?
In the case of protein digesting enzymes, known as endopeptidases, such as those secreted in the stomach (pespin), it is obvious. If they were secreted active they would digest the glands which secrete the enzymes themselves (gastric glands). Instead they must be secreted in an inactive form, which once in the stomach and exposed to HCl acid and other pepsin enzymes the pepsinogen activates and begins digesting protein.
What is the function of the intestinal gland?
Intestinal glands are responsible for secreting digestive enzymes, mucus, and hormones to help with the breakdown and absorption of nutrients in the small intestine. They also play a role in maintaining the pH balance of the intestine and protecting the intestinal lining from damage.
Why Enzymes secreted during ecolysis from hypodermal glands?

What digestive juice are poured into the food tube from glands outside the food tube?
Technically, most named digestive enzymes and secretions are made by glands located outside of the "tube" of the gastrointestinal tract. For instance, the salivary glands are located between the muscles of the jaw and face, and secrete saliva into the mouth through salivary ducts. Bile is created by the liver, stored in the gallbladder and then secreted into the small intestine; pancreatic enzymes (there are a bunch of them) are made in the pancreas then secreted into the small intestine as well.
Where are the intestinal glands located?
Intestinal glands, also known as crypts of Lieberkühn, are located within the lining of the small intestine and the large intestine. These glands are found in the mucosal layer, specifically in the intestinal epithelium, and they play a crucial role in secreting digestive enzymes and mucus. They help facilitate digestion and absorption of nutrients as well as maintain the health of the intestinal lining.
What happens when intestinal glands secrete intestinal juice?
Intestinal glands are located in the epithelial lining of the small intestine and colon. What happens when the intestinal glands secrete intestinal juice is that trypsin activates other enzymes to aid in protein digestion.
What produces a whole spectrum of enzymes that is secreted into the duodenum?
The pancreas produces a whole spectrum of digestive enzymes, including amylase, lipase, and proteases, which are secreted into the duodenum to aid in the digestion of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, respectively. These enzymes are essential for breaking down food molecules into nutrients that can be absorbed by the body.
A saltwater solution is secreted by what glands?
Saltwater solution is secreted by the salivary glands in the mouth. These glands help to moisten food for easier swallowing and begin the digestive process.
Where do digestive enzymes originate from in the body?
Digestive enzymes originate from various glands in the body, such as the salivary glands, stomach, pancreas, and small intestine. These enzymes help break down food into nutrients that can be absorbed by the body.
