Explain how ingested carbohydrates and proteins are
digested throughout the length of the digestive tract and how food
quality affects the rate of gastric emptying.
human physiology
Describe the process by which ingested proteins and
carbohydrates are digested, absorbed, and transported into the
bloodstream. Then contrast this with the process pertaining to the
digestion and absorption of dietary fats (lipids). Include an
explanation as to why lipids are processed differently from
hydrophilic molecules.
Explain how the carbohydrates in the food are digested and in
what form they are then absorbed into the bloodstream from the
intestine?
Inside the cells, the carbohydrates are degraded in a reaction
pathway called glycolysis. What is formed in glycolysis, ie what is
the end product?
How many ATPs are formed, in glycolysis, when one glucose
molecule is degraded? Are these ATPs formed by phosphorylation at
the substrate level or by oxidative phosphorylation? Explain your
answer.
If the cell...
1.
Where does proteins, lipids and carbohydrates get initially and
finally digested?
2. Does more substrate concentration increase enzyme activity
and if yes does it mean that the highest enzyme activity will be
digested first?
Compose an essay tracing the path of proteins nutrients
throughout each part of the gastrointestinal tract and give an
account of what would happen in each one of them. Provide as many
details as possible to come up with a thorough picture of the
destiny of proteins in the human body.
1)
explain how peristalsis and sphincter activity affect the movement
of food through the digestive tract.
2)describe the specific chemical changes occurring on ingested
molecules in the stomach.
3) campara the ABSORPTION of carbohydrates, fats and proteins
in the small intestines
Digestion enzymes
which cells release these proteins; which digestive tract organs
release what substances? From which cells? What are the functions
of these organs? What hormones affect stomach and duodenum
activity?
