THORAX ABDOMEN AND PELVIS

Detailed explanation-1: -This enzyme breaks down polysaccharides, a complex sugar that’s a carbohydrate.

Detailed explanation-2: -Chemical digestion in the mouth is minor but consists of salivary amylase (ptyalin, or alpha-amylase) and lingual lipase, both contained in the saliva. Salivary amylase is chemically identical to pancreatic amylase and digests starch into maltose and maltotriose, working at a pH optimum of 6.7 to 7.0.

Detailed explanation-3: -Saliva contains special enzymes that help digest the starches in your food. An enzyme called amylase breaks down starches (complex carbohydrates) into sugars, which your body can more easily absorb. Saliva also contains an enzyme called lingual lipase, which breaks down fats.

Detailed explanation-4: -Chemical digestion in the mouth is done by salivary amylase which is the enzyme in the saliva that breaks down complex carbohydrates into simple sugar. The food becomes a bolus, or ball of food, after digestion in the mouth.
