3.1.4.2. It also secrets SALIVARY amylase or PTYALIN
3.1.4.3. FUNCTIONS
3.1.4.3.1. It helps in speaking, swallowing, lubrication of food , Solvent, Helps in cleaning the mouth
3.1.4.3.2. Starch × PTYALIN=maltose
4. OESOPHAGUS
4.1. It is the passages between mouth and the stomach
4.2. Peristalsis is the wave of constrictions caused by the circular muscles of gut
5. Small intestine

5.3.1.1.1. It is mainly made up of no. Of viili They help us in enormous increase in surface area which does absorption Inside the viilus their r many artery ,vein, capillaries, lymph nodes (lacteal)
5.4. It severs as both absorption and digestion It recieves both bile and pancreatic juices
5.5. Bile
5.5.1. Yellowish green ,watery,produced in the liver, transported through hepatic which is joined to cystic duct It is stored in Ball bladder. The colour is due to pigment called biliverdin and bilirubin. It contains Na2Co3 The bile duct through a emulsification for greater surface area for enzymes
5.5.1.1. ACIDIC CHYME +BILE=ALKALINE CHYME FAT+BILE=EMUSIFIED FAT
5.6. Pancreatic juices
5.6.1. The pancreatic juices r of 3 types
5.6.1.1. AMYLOPSIN
5.6.1.1.1. Digest leftover starch into maltose--
5.6.1.2. TRYSIN
5.6.1.2.1. Acts on proteins
5.6.1.3. STEAPSIN
5.6.1.3.1. Acts on fat molecules
5.6.1.4. Trypsinogen(inactive)+enterokinase=active trypsin Proteins and peptides+trypsin=small peptides and amino acid Leftover starch+AMYLOPSIN=maltose Emulsified fat +STEAPSIN=fattyacids and glycerol
5.6.1.5. Peptides+erepsin=amino acid Maltose+maltase=glucose Sucrose+sucrace=glucose+fructose Lactose+lactase=glucose+galactose Emulsified fat+lipase=fatty acid
6. It is divided into Alimentary canal DIGESTIVE glands
7. Mouth
