The enzymes and chemicals secreted by the upper end of the small intestine primarily come from the pancreas and liver. The pancreas releases digestive enzymes such as amylase, lipase, and proteases, while the liver produces bile which aids in the digestion and absorption of fats.

What organ produces nuclease enzymes?
At the centre of a cell ---- ---- ----
Is secreted by the and acts to emulsify in the?
Bile is secreted by the liver and acts to emulsify fats in the small intestine. It helps break down large fat droplets into smaller droplets, making it easier for enzymes to digest and absorb fats.
Where is Amylases secreted?
Amylases are primarily secreted in the mouth (salivary amylase) by salivary glands and in the pancreas (pancreatic amylase) into the small intestine. These enzymes play a crucial role in breaking down complex carbohydrates into simpler sugars for absorption by the body.
Pancreatic enzymes digest all types of fluids after they are secreted into the?
small intestine. These enzymes break down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats into smaller molecules that can be absorbed by the body for energy and nutrition. They are vital for proper digestion and nutrient absorption.
Where is disaccharidases produced?
Disaccharidases are produced in the brush border of the small intestine, specifically in the microvilli of the enterocytes lining the small intestine. These enzymes are involved in breaking down disaccharides into monosaccharides to facilitate their absorption in the digestive system.
Where are digestive enzymes secreted and combined with food particles?
Enzymes from the liver, pancreas and gallbladder are secreted into the small intestine to digest the food inside.
What 3 organs are enzymes present?
what are the 3 organs that contribute enzymes and chemicals into the small intestine
What organ produces nuclease enzymes?
At the centre of a cell ---- ---- ----
Structure that digests food?
It's not the structure itself, but rather the enzymes and other chemicals secreted in these structures that digests food. These areas are:mouth (carbohydrates)stomach (proteins)small intestine (everything except proteins)
What organ absorbs bile and pancreatic juice in digestion?
Bile and pancreatic juice are secreted into the small intestine through ducts. These chemicals assist in digestive processes in the small intestine.
Does digestive enzymes will still function in the small intestin?
The small intestine is the site of work of some digestive enzymes that are secreted there. It is not an ideal site for the continued work of enzymes from the stomach, as the pH is not hospitable for the work of those gastric enzymes.
DOES The small intestine produce digestive enzymes?
No, the small intestine does not produce digestive enzymes. Instead, it receives enzymes from the pancreas and bile from the liver that help break down food for absorption. The small intestine primarily absorbs nutrients from the digested food.
What is in the stomach and small intestine that breaks down food into chemicals that the body can use?
Those are called enzymes.
List the enzymes secreted by mouth salivary glands stomach and the small intestine and what involved with digesting?
an adult usally has to have 2.5 millmerters of salt
Is bile a chemical secreted by small intestine?
Bile is secreted by the liver.
What enzyme is in the small intestine?
Amylase, protease and lipase are secreted from the pancreas into the small intestine. Sucrose, maltase, lactase from the wall of the intestine are also used to complete digestion.
Why are digestive enzymes secreted into small intestine rather than in stomach?
because stomach has very high acid... so it will just denature the proteins.
