to my knowledge the small intestines contain all digestive enzymes so i think so
Digestion involves breaking down complex food molecules into simpler molecules through the action of enzymes and acids. This process changes the chemical composition of the food, resulting in new molecules being formed. The breakdown of proteins into amino acids, fats into fatty acids and glycerol, and carbohydrates into simple sugars are examples of chemical changes that occur during digestion.
Ascaris eggs are ingested by humans, after which they hatch in the small intestine to release larvae. The larvae then penetrate the intestinal wall and travel to the lungs through the bloodstream. From the lungs, they are coughed up and swallowed, returning to the intestine to mature into adult worms, completing the life cycle.
The main organs involved in the human digestive system are the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine. Additional organs that play a role include the liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. These organs work together to break down food, absorb nutrients, and eliminate waste.
The process of fats changing into fatty acids and glycerol begins in the small intestine. When fats are ingested, they are broken down by enzymes called lipases in the small intestine, resulting in the release of fatty acids and glycerol, which can then be absorbed into the bloodstream.
Smaller and simpler molecules that can be absorbed by the body, such as glucose, amino acids, and fatty acids.
After a persons stomach was surgically removed the chemical digestion of ingested protein would probably begin in the
Digestion is the process by which ingested (eaten) food is broken down (by acid and enzymes) and absorbed (into the blood, through the lining of the small intestine).
The 3 parts of the small intestine are: the Duodenum, the Jejunum, and the Ileum.The small intestine is the site where most of the nutrients from ingested food are absorbed. The inner wall, or mucosa, of the small intestine is lined with simple columnar epithelial tissue.
As far as the main function of small intestine is concerned, it is the part where the 'most extensive part of digestion' occurs. The large intestine is most responsible for absorption of water and excretion of solid wastes, thus, works more towards dealing with the bulk and its removal from the body. Since, the large intestine deals with bulk, it is shorter and wider, while the small intestine's narrow width corresponds to the absorption and digestion process carried out. Food ingested via the mouth enters the stomach and is allowed to enter the duodenum by a muscle called pyloric sphincter. The ingested food is then pushed through the small intestine by a muscular-wavelike process called peristalsis.
The Small and Large Intestines are part of the Digestive System. The Digestive System is responsible for allowing an organism to transform ingested food into chemical energy for that organisms survival.
Although fat is ingested through foods it is not secreted out of the body like any other ingested thing. It gets stored in the body and it is a useful energy storage. When need the body taps into its fat storage for some excess energy. It must be burned off by exercising or taken out surgically.
food ingested is broken down into smaller pieces via mechanical and chemical digestion. this takes place in the mouth stomach and the intestine. it is then absorbed (taken in) by cells of the gut called enterocytes. these cells then transfer the nutrients into the capillaries supplying the gut. in this way nutrients from your diet enter the circulatory system to transfer them to other tissues
When food is ingested in the mouth, it is propelled towards the stomach then to intestines and to the anus by peristaltic movement of the muscles. Without muscles, digestion will take couple of days to occur. Food is propelled slowly through small and big intestine as most of the absorption of food occurs here.
Materials that are not ingested move into the colon or large intestine.
Digestion Brakes down ingested products into usable materials in the stomach, extracts them in the intestines, and the waste goes You-Know-Where
Digestion turns ingested food into usable nutrients. Circulation carries these nutrients to all body cells.
