ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Your small intestine makes digestive juice, which mixes with bile and pancreatic juice to complete the breakdown of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. Bacteria in your small intestine make some of the enzymes you need to digest carbohydrates.

Detailed explanation-2: -Digestion involves mixing food with digestive juices, moving it through the digestive tract, and breaking down large molecules of food into smaller molecules. Digestion begins in the mouth, when you chew and swallow, and is completed in the small intestine.

Detailed explanation-3: -Digestion and absorption of all biomolecules are completed in the intestine. The small intestine has 3 parts namely-the duodenum (c-shaped), jejunum, and ileum. Complete digestion of food takes place in the ileum.

Detailed explanation-4: -Unlike the small intestine, the large intestine produces no digestive enzymes. Chemical digestion is completed in the small intestine before the chyme reaches the large intestine. Functions of the large intestine include the absorption of water and electrolytes and the elimination of feces.

Detailed explanation-5: -The lowest part of your small intestine is the ileum. This is where the final parts of digestive absorption take place.
