Question

these 6 organs all play a role in the break down of food polymers into monomers. match up the correct description with each organ. two of the organs will have 1 description matched to them. this makes amylase which starts to break down carbs this makes an enzyme that breaks down carbs this is where carbs are broken down this makes an enzyme that breaks down lipids this makes bile which breaks down lipids this stores bile which breaks down lipids this is where lipids are broken down this is where proteins start to be broken down this makes an enzyme that breaks down proteins this is where proteins are broken down

Explanation:

Salivary glands make an enzyme that starts to break down carbs. The mouth is where carbs start to be broken down. The stomach is where proteins start to be broken down and it makes an enzyme that breaks down proteins. The pancreas makes an enzyme that breaks down carbs and an enzyme that breaks down lipids. The liver makes bile which breaks down lipids. The small intestine is where lipids are broken down and where proteins are broken - down.

Answer:

• Salivary Gland: This makes an enzyme which starts to break down CARBS, This makes an enzyme that breaks down CARBS
• Mouth (not labeled but implied as where initial carb - breakdown occurs): This is where CARBS are broken down
• Stomach: This is where PROTEINS start to be broken down, This makes an enzyme that breaks down PROTEINS
• Pancreas: This makes an enzyme that breaks down CARBS, This makes an enzyme that breaks down LIPIDS
• Liver: This makes bile which breaks down LIPIDS
• Small Intestine: This is where LIPIDS are broken down, This is where PROTEINS are broken down
