enzyme that speeds up the digestion of starch into sugars
Amylase
2 of 19
neutralises stomach acids to give a high pH for the enzymes from the pancreas and small intestine to work well.
Bile
3 of 19
enzymes that speed up the breakdown of carbohydrates into simple sugars
Carbohydrases
4 of 19
molecules that contain only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. they provide the energy for the metabolism and are found in foods such as rice potatoes and bread.
Carbohydrates
5 of 19
a substance that speeds up the rate of another reaction but is not used up or changed itself
Catalyst
6 of 19
the breakdown of the molecular structure of a protein so it no longer functions
Denatured
7 of 19
the process where cells become specialised for a particular function
Differentiate
8 of 19
organ system where food it digested and absorbed
Digestive System
9 of 19

14 of 19
the sum of al the reactions taking place in a cell or the body of an organism
Metabolism
15 of 19
a collection of different tissues working together to carry out specific funtions
