They break down starch into sugars in the mouth and the small intestines. 2 of 8 Protease enzymes Made in the stomach & small intestines. They break down protein into amino acids in the stomach and small intestines 3 of 8 Lipase enzymes Made in the pancreas & small intestines. They break down lipides (fats and oils) into fatty acids and glycerol in the small intestines 4 of 8 Bile neutralises the acid conditions from the stomach by raising the pH 5 of 8 Aerobic respiration Happens in the mitochondria of all cells and is the process of releasing energy from food. Also produces a waste product called lactic acid. 6 of 8 Carbohydrates provides a slow release of energy than eating simple sugars. 7 of 8 Anaerobic respiration provides energy when insufficient oxygen is available 8 of 8
