Salivary amylase is an enzyme produced in the salivary glands that begins the digestion of carbohydrates in the mouth.

The majority of protein digestion occurs in the small intestine, where pancreatic enzymes and enzymes produced by the intestinal cells break down proteins into amino acids.

Lipase is an enzyme that breaks down fats into fatty acids and glycerol.

The primary function of the large intestine is to absorb water and electrolytes from the remaining indigestible material, forming stool.

All of the macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, and fats) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) are absorbed primarily in the small intestine.

Bile, produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder, emulsifies fats, breaking them down into smaller droplets, which increases the surface area for lipase to work on.

Cellulose is a type of carbohydrate that cannot be digested by humans because we lack the necessary enzymes to break it down.

The stomach's primary function is to break down food mechanically through churning and mixing, and chemically through the action of hydrochloric acid and pepsin, which begin the digestion of proteins.

Carbohydrates are not a type of protein. Proteins are made up of amino acids, while carbohydrates are made up of sugars.

The pancreas produces enzymes such as amylase, lipase, and protease, which help digest carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, respectively.

Carbohydrates are not a type of fat. Fats are made up of fatty acids, while carbohydrates are made up of sugars.

The liver produces bile, which helps digest fats by breaking them down into smaller droplets.

Carbohydrates are not a type of vitamin. Vitamins are organic compounds that are essential for human health in small amounts.

The gallbladder stores bile produced by the liver until it is needed for digestion, at which point it is released into the small intestine.

Carbohydrates are not a type of mineral. Minerals are inorganic elements that are essential for human health in small amounts.
