Hydrolases
- digestive enzymes
Amylolytic
- carbohydrates - splitting enzymes
salivary amylase or ptyalin are from the
salivary
glands
pancreas
secrete pancreatic amylase
invertases from
goblet cell
of the small intestine
Proteases secreted as
zymogens
or
inactive
enzymes
Pepsinongen
from the gastric gland of the stomach
Trypsinogen and Chymotrypsinogen from
pancreas
Gastric lipase from the
stomach
ribunuclease and deoxyribunuclease from
pancreas
Ptyalin
- acts on starch in the oral cavity changing starch to maltose
Pancreatic amylase
- changing starch to maltose
Maltose
- changing it to glucose
Lactase
- changing it to glucose and galactose
Sucrase
- changing it to glucose and fructose
Pepsinogen
- activated to pepsin in the presence of HCL
Trypsinogen
- activated trypsin by enterokinase in small intestine
Gastric lipase
- acts on emulsified fats changing these fats acids
Glycerol bile
- emulsifies fats
Nuclease
- acts on nucleic acid changing these to nucleotides
Phagocytosis
- cell eating
pinocytosis
- cell drinking
emeiocytosis - cell vomiting
glucose
and
galactose
by
facilitated diffusion
requiring the presence of high concentration of external Na
ions
vitamin
b12
binds with an intrinstic factor secreted by the
gastric mucosa
vitamin
A
binds with retinol-bonding protein before it is absorbed
