| Most absorbtion takes place where? | duodenum |
| Where is B12 absorbed | ilium |
| where does digestion begin | mouth via salivary amylase |
| what types of bond does amylase break | 1,4 glycosidic |
| what pH does amylase work best at | 7 |
| Amylase is secreted in what form. Active or inactive | active |
| Glucoamylase (maltase) does what | removes glucose monomers for transport from maltotriose or maltose |
| What are the products of amylase digestion | maltose, maltotriose, and a-limit dextrin |
| SGLT1 does what | acts as a co-transporter for glucose/galactose and Na+ |
| GLUT5 is a channel for what monomer | fructose |
| GLUT2 does what | moves all monomers into the interstital space from the epithelial cells |
| What is the absorbtion of monomers driven by | The gradient created by basolaeral tranport |
| Poor nutrient absorbtion can be caused by what | maldigestion OR malabsorbtion (or both) |
| Meals high in sugar tend to have early or delayed gastric emptying | delayed |
| What is the rate limiting step of absorbtion | Uptake, not hydolysis |
| Regulators of intestinal phase | CCK, Vagus, and Secretin |
