the liver
The structure that produces a substance aiding in the mechanical breakdown of fats is the pancreas. It secretes pancreatic lipase, an enzyme that helps digest fats in the small intestine. This enzyme breaks down triglycerides into fatty acids and glycerol, facilitating their absorption. Additionally, bile produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder also plays a crucial role by emulsifying fats, making them easier for lipase to act upon.
Jaundice produces yellow pigmentation from elevated levels of bilirubin in the blood, which is a yellow-orange pigment that is released during the breakdown of red blood cells.
The breakdown of protein produces amino acids, which are used for various bodily functions such as building muscle and enzymes. The breakdown of starch produces glucose, which is a source of energy for the body.
the liver produces bile and the pancreas produces enzymes that breakdown food.

Glycogenolysis, breakdown of glycogen, produces glucose-6-phosphate, which in liver is further converted to glucose-1-phosphate that can leave the hepatocytes to the blood. This doesn't happen in muscle cells, so the glucose-6-phosphate is used in glycolysis instead during muscle contraction to produce ATP for myosin.
A substance that produces hydronium ions when placed in water is called an acid.
