Question

Give end products of digestion.

Answer 1

1. Amino acids, fatty acids, glycerol, and glucose are the end products of digestion.
2. Carbohydrates are broken down into glucose, fructose, and other sugars.
   $\mathrm{starch}\stackrel{\mathrm{amylase}}{\to }\mathrm{sugars}$
3. Amino acids are formed after the proteins have been broken down.
   $\mathrm{Protein}\underset{\mathrm{Trypsin}}{\overset{\mathrm{Pepsin}}{\to }}\mathrm{Amino}\mathrm{acids}$
4. Glycerol and fatty acids are formed by the breakdown of fats.
   $\mathrm{Fats}\stackrel{\mathrm{Lipase}}{\to }\mathrm{fatty}\mathrm{acids}+\mathrm{gylcerol}$
