Chpt 24
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| salivary amylase | in salivary glands, breaks down starch and creates maltose, dextrins |
| lingual lipase | lingual glands in the tongue, break down triglycerids (fats and oils) and lipids, creates fatty acid and diglycerides |
| pepsin | activated from pepsinogen by pepsin and HCL, found in stomach cheif cells, breaks down protein and produces peptides |
| gastric lipase | found in stomach cheif cells, breaks down triglycerides, and produces fatty acids and monoglycerides |
| pancreatic amylase | in pancreatic acinar cells, breaks down starch and creates maltose, maltotriose and dextrin |
| trypsin | activated from trypsinogen in pancreatic acinar cells, breaks down proteins and produces peptides |
| chymotrypsin | activated from chymotrypsinogen in pancreatic acinar cells, breaks down protein and produces peptides |
| elastase | activated from proelastase by trypsin in pancreatic acinar cells, breaks down protein and produces peptides |
| carboxpeptidase | activated from procarboxypeptidase by trypsin in pancreatic anicar cells, breaks down amino acid at carboxyl end of peptide, produces aino acids and peptides |
| pancreatic lipase | pancreatic acinar cells, breaks down triglycerides that have been emulsified by bile salts, produce fatty acids and monoglycerides |
| ribonucleasee | in pancreatic acinar cells, breaks down ribonucleic acid and produces nucleotides |
| deoxyribonuclease | in pancreatic acinar cells, breaks down deoxyribonucleic acid and produces nucleotides |
| a-dextrinase | in sm intestines, breaks down dextrins and produces glucose |
| maltase | sm intestines, breaks down maltose and produces glucose |
| surcase | sm intestines, breaks down sucrose and produces glucose and frustose |
| lactase | sm intestines, breaks down lactose and produces glucose and galactose |
| enterokinase | sm intestines, breaks down trypsinogen and produces trypsin |
| aminopeptidase | sm intestines breaks down amino acid at amino end of peptides and produces amino acids and peptides |
| dipeptidase | sm intestines break down dipeptides and produces amino acids |
| nucleosidases and phosphatases | sm intestines, break down nucleotides, produce nitrogenous bases, pentoses and phosphates |
