CARBOHYDRATE DIGESTION AND ABSORPTION. Carbohydrates such as starch are polysaccharides. Digestion of carbohydrates begins in the v where they are broken down into smaller molecules called v and maltose by v produced by the These molecules are then further digested in the v by v produced by the These molecules and maltose and the dietary sugars, sucrose, and lactose, are finally broken down into v by enzymes located in the microvilli (brush border) of the enterocytes lining the small intestine. The v are absorbed by the enterocytes and released into the extracellular space where they are picked up by the v of the villi.

FAT DIGESTION AND ABSORPTION. Fats are lipids. Digestion of lipids begins in the v by produced by the v. Fat digestion continues in the v by The majority of fat digestion occurs in the where fats are emulsified by bile salts produced in the Once emulsified into lipid droplets v produced by the v continues the digestion of lipids in the Lipids are finally broken down into v. These molecules are then bound to small particles of bile to form micelles. Micelles transport digested lipids to the enterocytes lining the small intestine. They enter the enterocyte where they are processed into chylomicrons and released into the extracellular space where they are picked up by the v of the villi. Eventually these products of lipid digestion enter the blood at the superior vena cava.
In the lactase enzyme simulation you conducted in Part 1 of this Nutrition Lab, you found that enzyme activity is dependent upon the pH of the environment. Coffee has a pH of approximately 5.0.
