Which of the following statements regarding protein digestion is incorrect?
A.
The intestinal enzymes trypsin and chymotrypsin continue the chemical breakdown of polypeptides into oligopeptides.
B.
Chemical digestion of proteins is initiated in the stomach through the action of the enzyme pepsin.
C.
Mechanical digestion of proteins starts in the mouth through chewing.
D.
Di- and tripeptides enter the intestinal cells where they are broken down by peptidases into individual amino acids.
The normal mechanism of defecation involves:A. Stretch receptors located in the duodenum and jejunum initiate a long-lasting reflex that relaxes the internal anal sphincter several hours after food initially passes from the stomach to the intestines.B. Stretch receptors located in the rectal wall initiate the defecation reflex inresponse to an incoming mass movement.C. The defecation reflex involves contraction of the rectal wall and simultaneous relaxation of the internal anal sphincter.D. Digestive fluids secreted from the pancreas and gall bladder contain enzymesthat act on the smooth muscle of the intestine, stimulating peristalsis.E. Conscious signals from the cortex will allow for relaxation of the external anal sphincter (when appropriate!).
Which of the following is true regarding digestion?
A.
The first segment of the alimentary tract is the duodenum.
B.
Amylase hydrolyzes starches into simple sugars.
C.
Bile hydrolyzes amylase into simple sugars.
D.
Trypsin and chymotrypsin degrade lipids into free fatty acids.
