2. 1. We actually eat mixture of carbohydrates, proteins and
fat. 2. All this must be broken into small molecule. 3. This will
involve the process of digestion.
3. Digestion 1. Is the process of breaking down large molecule
of food into small molecule. 2. This is important, so that the
small molecule can be absorbed into the body through the
bloodstream.
4. 3. Digestion involve : a) Alimentary canal or gut (tube from
mouth to anus) b) Liver c) Pancreas Secrete the enzyme to break
down the food that we eat Liver Pancreas
5. 4. Digestion involve 2 process: a) Physical digestion ( No
chemical-using teeth) b) Chemical digestion ( Use chemical-
enzyme)
6. 5. Three main enzyme in the human digestive system process:
a) Amylase ( Starch -> Glucose) b) Protease ( Protein ->
Amino acid) c) Lipase ( Fat -> Fatty Acid + Glycerol)
7. 1. Food chew into smaller pieces via physical digestion. 2.
Salivary amylase from the salivary gland will breakdown Starch into
Maltose( Kind of sugar) 1. Mouth
8. 2. Oesophagus 1. No enzyme takes place here. 2. The food
will become bolus 3. The food move from mouth to stomach via
wave-like movement ( Peristalsis).
9. 1. In stomach, gastric juice will release. 2. Gastric juice
contain Protease and Hydrochloric acid. 3. Protease enzyme will
breakdown protein into polypeptides or peptones 4. Hydrochloric
acid will: a) Stop the amylase b) Give acidic medium for protease
action c) Kill bacteria 3. Stomach
10. 1. Duodenum is the first part of small intestine. 2. Bile-
greenish fluid produce by liver and stored in gall bladder. 3.
Function of bile is to emulsifies fats into oil droplets for lipase
action. 4. Duodenum
11. 1. Pancreas will produce Pancreatic juice that contain
amylase, protease and lipase enzyme. 2. Pancreatic amylase
breakdown starch to maltose 5. Pancreas
12. 3. Protease breakdown proteins to polypeptides 4. Lipase
breakdown fat into fatty acids and glycerol
13. 1. Small intestine will secrete Intestinal juice that
contain maltase, protease and lipase. 2. Maltase will breakdown
maltose into glucose. 6. Small intestine
14. 3. Protease breakdown polypeptides into amino acid. 4.
Lipase breakdown fats into fatty acids and glycerol.
15. Conclusion for amylase.. Starch Amylase (Mouth &
Duodenum) Maltose Maltase (Small Intestine) Glucose End
Product
16. Conclusion for protease.. Protein Protease (Stomach &
Duodenum) Polypeptides Protease (Small intestine) Amino Acid End
Product
17. Conclusion for lipase.. Fat Lipase (Duodenum & Small
Intestine) Fatty acid + Glycerols End Product
