What types enzymes are responsible for hydrolyzing the proteins in foods?
Proteases
What types of enzymes are responsible for hydrolyzing proteins in foods?
Proteases
What is the main chemical used to digest foods are?
The main chemical used in the digestion of food is called enzymes. Enzymes are proteins that help break down food molecules into smaller components that can be absorbed by the body. Different enzymes are responsible for breaking down specific nutrients like carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.
What enzymes speed up the breakdown of proteins in foods?
protease
What enzymes speeds up the breakdown of proteins in foods?
protease
What makes the enzymes for the small intestine?
The small intestine receives enzymes from the pancreas. It provides digestive enzymes for the breakdown of all three types of foods; carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.
What foods are enzymes?
No foods are enzymes, but all foods start out having enzymes. These foods are fermented foods and produce in its raw state.
Are nutrients responsible for the chemical changes that break foods down into simpler forms for use by the body?
no. enzymes
What is pepsin responsible for?
1. Pepsin is the important digestive enzyme of the stomach. 2. Pepsin can essentially digest any protein in the diet. 3. Lacking sufficient pepsin, protein foods are poorly penetrated by other digestive enzymes further on and are thus poorly digested.
Which body part has glands that make millions of enzymes to break up your food?
The pancreas is the only gland in the that produces and secretes enzymes for the breakdown of all three catagories of foods; proteins, carbohydrates, and fats.
What food type makes enzymes?
Enzymes are found in all living things - they are the catalysts for most biochemical reactions - so all foods that are living will have enzymes. Once they have been cooked or preserved the enzymes will have denatured and no longer be present.
How do cells get the proteins they need from foods?
enzymes breaks down food proteins into smaller molecules that can be carried by blood
