Q

what is the role of bile

A
  • bile helps to neutralize the acid to provide alkaline conditions
  • bile emulsifies fat by breaking them down from big fat globules to smaller fat globules to provide more surface area
17
Q

what part do olive oils/detergent act as ?

A

liquids detergent is added to simulate the activity of bile,it acts as an emulsifier

18
Q

what does the visking tubing show?

A

The visking tubing is selectively permeable meaning it has small pores that only allow small molecules like glucose or amino acids to pass through it. Large molecules like starch and proteins cannot pass through as they cannot fir through the pores.

19
Q

carbohydrase the enzyme…..

A

acts on starch
turns into the molecule glucose
the enzyme is produced in the mouth,pancreas and small intestine
and site of digestion is the mouth and small intestine

20
Q

Protease the enzyme….

A

acts on proteins
turns into the molecule amino acids
produced in stomach,pancreas,small intestine
site of digestion is stomach and small intestine

21
Q

Lipase the enzyme……

A

Acts on fats and oils (lipids)
turns into the molecule fatty acids and glycerol
produced in pancreas and small intestine
site of digestion is small intestine
