the chyme reaching the intestine is acted upon by the proteolytic enzymes of pancreatic juice.
Carbohydrates in the chyme are hydrolyzed by pancreatic amylase into disaccharides. Fats are broken into di-and monoglycerides by lipases of pancreatic juice. Hence, Pancreatic juice takes part in the digestion of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates.
