Detailed explanation-1: -Bile from the liver and bicarbonate from the pancreas neutralize the acidic chyme as it empties into the small intestine. After pepsin, trypsin, and chymotrypsin break down proteins into peptides, these are further broken down into amino acids by other enzymes called peptidases, also secreted by the pancreas.
Detailed explanation-2: -Substances produced by the liver, pancreas and the lining of the small intestines help to complete chemical digestion. As part of the digestive system, the liver produces bile.
Detailed explanation-3: -Your pancreas makes a digestive juice that has enzymes that break down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. The pancreas delivers the digestive juice to the small intestine through small tubes called ducts. Liver. Your liver makes a digestive juice called bile that helps digest fats and some vitamins.
Detailed explanation-4: -Lipids, proteins, and complex carbohydrates are broken down into small and absorbable units (digested), principally in the small intestine.
