Digestive enzymes

The video explains how food is digested and absorbed into the bloodstream. It covers the breakdown of large food molecules like carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids into smaller molecules by enzymes. Carbohydrates are digested by amylase into sugars, proteins by protease into amino acids, and lipids by lipase into glycerol and fatty acids. The video also discusses the different conditions required for enzyme activity in the stomach and small intestine.

How do the conditions in the stomach differ from those in the small intestine, and why is this significant for enzyme activity?

Describe the process of emulsification and its importance in lipid digestion.
