What else can I help you with?
What happens to the products of digestion of proteins?
they die
What proteins become during digestion?
Muscles
What is an albumose?
An albumose is a substance formed by proteins during digestion.
What enzyme completes the digestion of proteins?
Trypsin completes the digestion of proteins. Pepsin in the stomach starts the digestion of proteins.
What happens to a molecule off protein during digestion?
During digestion, proteins are broken down into their individual amino acids by enzymes in the stomach and small intestine. These amino acids are then absorbed into the bloodstream and used by the body for various functions such as building muscle, repairing tissues, and supporting immune function.
What happens in the stomach during the digestion?
what orgens resposible for digestion
In addition to storage and mechanical breakdown of food what else happens in the stomach?
initiates protein digestion and denatures proteins
Digestion happens in these what are they?
digestion happens in these
Are all proteins digested?
Yes there is a turn over cycle happens for all proteins in cell. If a protein is not needed or a protein has done its job it will be degraded by proteases. Also the house keeping proteins are constantly made as they are needed for the cells primary activities.
What happens to the molecule of protein during digestion?
During digestion, proteins are broken down into smaller peptides and amino acids by enzymes in the stomach and small intestine. The stomach's acidic environment activates pepsin, while pancreatic enzymes like trypsin and chymotrypsin further degrade proteins into smaller chains and individual amino acids. These amino acids are then absorbed through the intestinal lining into the bloodstream, where they are transported to cells for various functions, such as building new proteins and supporting metabolism.
What smaller molecules result when proteins are chemically changed by digestion?
The first product of proteins digestion are polypeptides.
Are protease found in saliva?
Yes, proteases are found in saliva. They help in breaking down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids during the initial stages of digestion in the mouth. This process is essential for the digestion and absorption of proteins in the body.
