    with pancreatic enzymes, and molecules are absorbed into the enterocytes, proteins are broken up by pepsin from gastric glands and then further broken down by trypsin, chymotrypsin, elastase and carboxypeptidases. Carbohydrates are hydrolysed by amylases and membrane bound enzymes convert sugars to monosaccharides. Lipids are emulsified in the stomach and then further emulsified in the duodenum by pancreatic lipases, small lipid molecules are absorbed by…

    Abstract This experiment observed the effects of enzyme’s concentration on the enzyme’s activity. This was determined by measuring the rate of the reaction under different concentration, and see whether the reaction increases when the concentration high or not. The consequences of the experiment indicated that the rate of the reaction of enzyme increases whenever the concentration is high. Also, if the concentration is low, the reaction rate will be low too. Introduction Enzymes are…

    and are unresponsive to sugars (Bradshaw, 1996). Hence, foods containing animal products or fats, protein, meat extracts or certain free amino acids are most preferred diets of felids (Kirk et al., 2000; NRC, 2006). Feline lacks salivary amylase and pancreatic amylase activity is also very low; hence they are not adapted to utilize carbohydrate based diets (Kienzle, 1993a; Kirk et al., 2000). The activity of hexokinase and glucokinase enzymes is minimal to absent (Washizu et al., 1999; Tanaka…

As the ETP sludge’s concentration increases the plant growth also increases in the same trend because the available N,P and K is increases gradually when the concentration of ETP sludge increases after incubation presented in figure 1. Moreover, vegetation of the treated soil proved that the presence of sludge marginally promotes the plants growth, while hindering the uptake of Zn and Pb by the leaves and the roots [25].…

In addition to this, it adds saliva to the food which helps with the digestive process because it contains an enzyme called amylase which breaks down carbohydrates (Taylor). This chewed food then enters the esophagus which pushes it down through a process called peristalsis, in which the walls of the esophagus contract to perform movement similar to kneading. The food…
