Question

describ the role of digestion of carbohydrates and fats in stomach

Open in App
Solution

Dear Student,

The digestion of carbohydrates starts in the mouth. Very little digestion of carbohydrates and fats takes place in the stomach since the environment in the stomach is acidic which is not favourable for the digestion of fats and carbohydrates. Fats is digested majorly in the small intestine.

Hope you got the answer.

Cheers!!!
