The primary site of intracellular digestion are the lysosomes.
Mouth, small intestine, and stomach
Yes, there are enzymes in the mouth of humans that changes starches into sugars.
There are many. Digestion is a twofold process; physical digestion and enzymatic digestion. Physical digestion is the act of eating food to break it into smaller parts. Enzymatic digestion is where enzymes (chemical compounds produced by the body) break the food down at a molecular level. Enzymes include salivary amylase, pepsin, lipase, trypsin and many, many more.
The digestion of starch begins in the mouth during mastication. The ptyalin enzyme (an amylase) converts the starch to sugar .
enzymes start the process of digestion in the mouth. they are located more specifically in saliva which is located in the salivary glands.
Chemical digestion of pasta begins in the mouth, where saliva, containing the enzyme amylase, breaks down starches into simpler sugars. As pasta is chewed and mixed with saliva, this enzymatic action initiates the digestion process. Once the pasta reaches the stomach, gastric juices, including hydrochloric acid and pepsin, further break down proteins, though starch digestion continues primarily in the small intestine. Overall, the chemical digestion of pasta involves both enzymatic and acidic processes that transform it into absorbable nutrients.
