Energy in context Introduction Digestion is the breakdown of large insoluble food molecules into smaller molecules so they can pass though the intestinal wall into the bloodstream and be transported throughout the body. There are seven different food groups in a balanced diet which should include Carbohydrate‚ fat‚ water‚ protein‚ fibre‚ vitamins and minerals. Although most foods contain these in some shape or form the foods that contain most of one type fall into that category‚ a chicken

Digestion/ Absorption and Homeostasis In order to survive‚ our bodies must bring in energy and nutrients for the cells of the body through eating and digestion of food. To be carried to the cells of the body by the blood stream‚ food must be broken down to molecules. This breaking down of food into molecules‚ small enough to be absorbed into and carried through the blood stream‚ is carried out by the digestive system through the process of digestion and absorption. Digestion is the process of

Digestion and Enzymes – APP. Hypothesis: The enzyme‚ Amylase which is used to break down carbohydrates will work the best when heated at 40°C. Also‚ as the temperature increases the reaction rate of amylase increases too. However‚ the reaction rate of amylase will start decreasing when the temperature reaches the enzyme’s optimal temperature. Many enzymes are specific for a certain substrate. For example‚ lipase is a specific enzyme for fat substrates and protease‚ a specific enzyme for

What passive channels are likely found in the membrane of the olfactory receptor‚ in the membrane of the Pacinian corpuscle‚ and in the membrane of the free nerve ending? Chemical and pressure channels. 2. What is meant by the term graded potential? Graded potential are changes in the transmembrane potential that cannot spread far from the site of stimulus. 3.

While the text states that taking "drugs won’t enhance creativity"‚ I disagree‚ because for one‚ some of our best music comes from the major drug using era known as the 60’s‚ 70’s‚ & 80’s. All joking aside‚ I mainly just disagree with this statement in particular because I think it could have been worded a bit differently and really define what they mean by a “drug” especially because I think addiction affects everyone. What people think about when they see the word can be anything (usually derived

EXPERIMENT 13 DIGESTION IN THE SMALL INTESTINES ------------------------------------------------- ABSTRACT The small intestine serves as the site of major digestive and absorptive processes. In this experiment‚ the action of pancreatic enzymes on representative samples of each food group under different conditions‚ such as increased/decreased pH and presence of other substances‚ were observed. A pancreatin solution was first prepared from a hog pancreas and was completely neutralized using

Cultural‚ Biological‚ Physical and Chemical An entirely different perspective is brought into focus as we consider some of the environmental hazards that accompany industrial growth and intensive agriculture. Some of the most dangerous hazards in this world are the outcome of purely voluntary behavior --- in particular‚ smoking tobacco and engaging in risky sexual activity. We will look at four classes of environmental hazards: Cultural‚ Biological‚ Physical and Chemical (Wright & Boorse‚ 2011)
