Vitamins come in two categories: fat-soluble and water-soluble.Figure 34.11 Which of the following statements about the digestive system is false? Chyme is a mixture of food and digestive juices that is produced in the stomach. Food enters the large intestine before the small intestine. In the small intestine, chyme mixes with bile, which emulsifies fats. The stomach is separated from the small intestine by the pylloric sphincter.Figure 34.19 Which of the following statements about digestive processes is true? Amylase, maltaseT and lactase in the mouth digest carbohydrates. Trypsin and lipase in the stomach digest protein. Bile emulsifies lipids in the small intestine. No food is absorbed until the small intestine.

Chyme is a mixture of food and digestive juices that is produced in the stomach. b. Food enters the large intestine before the small intestine. c.

The substrate for lipase is fatty acids When lipase is present and active it hydrolyzes triglycerides When triglycerides are hydrolyzed the pH would be elevated All of the above None of the aboveWhich of the following best describes the process of peristalsis smooth muscle contractions that move food through the alimentary canal a common cause of loss of appetite, fatigue, and dehydration voluntary control of the rectal sphincters regulating defecation the transport of nutrients to the liver through the hepatic portal vessel a process of fat emulsification in the small intestine
- Which of the following statements is TRUE? Hydrochloric acid makes an acidic environment in the stomach that promotes promotes polysaccharide digestion. Lipase, produced by the pancreas, digests the emulsified fats into fatty acids. Bile, synthesized by the liver and stored in the gall bladder, digests fats which will then be absorbed in the small intestine The acidic environment converts the inactive pepsin into its active form: pepsinogen. Pepsinogen digests proteins in the stomach.Which of the following statements is wrong? Bile is synthesized from cholesterol. Bile is synthesized by liver . Bile is released in the small intestine. Bile dissolves proteins in water for digestion . Bile is stored in the Gallbladder .Choose from the following: Fatty Acids, high, hepatic vein, hepatic portal vein, maltose, lipoprotein , capillaries , low, "phosphate , suger, base" Glucose , fatty acids &glycerol , nucleotide amino acids, lymph, lacteal.
