Mrs. Lopez has the most difficulty initiating digestion of proteins after her stomach is removed. The correct option is C.
Explanation:
When the stomach is removed due to complications such as in cancers the food eaten directly goes to intestine. Without stomach Mrs Lopez will have difficulty in starting the digestion of protein.
The digestion of protein takes place and starts in the stomach and duodenum of intestine. There are enzymes as pepsin, trypsin and chyomtrypsin secreted by stomach and pancreas. Pepsin breaks the peptide bonds of protein.
The HCl and the enzymes in stomach initiates the process of digestion of protein. The amino acids formed are ardent in various metabolic processes and repair.
lipids and carbohydrate digestion starts from the mouth only as salivary amylase and lipase initiates the process.
The answer is mechanical weathering
Answer & explanation:
Amylase is part of enzymes, a group of large peptide molecules (formed by amino acids) whose role is to catalyze reactions in order to facilitate the synthesis of other biological molecules.
Amylase is found mainly in saliva (in the form of salivary amylase, or ptialin), acting in the breakdown of starch and glycogen in foods, reducing them to smaller particles, facilitating their digestion and absorption.
The action of enzymes depends on certain specific conditions, called optimal conditions. In the case of <u>amylase</u>, it depends on an optimum pH of 7 (neutral) and an optimum temperature of approximately 37 ° C.
This enzyme can still act between 35 ° C and 40 ° C, but below 35 ° C it is inactivated, preventing its functions from being performed, and above 40 ° C it suffers denaturation, causing changes in its structures.
Thus, it is concluded that the <u>temperature</u> (under optimal conditions) is important for enzymes because it keeps their actions and structures in proper operation.
I do believe the answer is B
