Answer:

This question lacks options, options are:

A. water

B. glucose

C. vitamins

D. amino acids

E. lipids

The correct answer is E.

Explanation:

Lipids are a heterogeneous group of organic compounds divided into fats or oils, phospholipids and cholesterol esters. The lymphatic vessels are responsible for the transport of lipids and fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E and K), which are absorbed through the digestive tract, that is, they act as capturers of fats and excess fluids from the human body, always present in the blood vessels. They do not carry blood, but lymph, a clear liquid. They play an important role in the transport of fats, in the recovery of fluids that escape from the blood capillaries and in the fight against infections. In the small intestine, specialized lymphatic capillaries transport lipids from the diet to the lymphatic vessels and, ultimately, to the blood. The presence of these lipids makes the lymph drained through the small intestine appear creamy white.

Choose all the true statements about protein digestion and hydrolysis.
klio [65]

Answer: The true statements about protein digestion and hydrolysis are;

1. Hydrochloric acid in gastric juices cause protein denaturation.

2. In small intestine trypsin attacks peptide bonds.

3.free amino acids are absorbed by the intestinal wall.

Explanation:

Protein digestion occurs in the duodenum and stomach and it is the breakdown of proteins to amino acids by action of Enzymes like trypsin, pepsin.

Protein is digested by the hydrolysis of carbon-nitrogen bond. Mechanical digestion of protein begins in the mouth and it continues in the small intestine and stomach.

Chemical digestion starts in the stomach where by hydrochloric acid in the gastric juice denatures the protein and convert pepsinogen to pepsin enzyme which convert the protein in food to peptides. Trypsin attacks the peptide bond that involves the carboxyl group which breaks it to polypeptide. Exopepdisases and dipeptidases breaks it down to amino acids. The amino acids released by protein digestion is then absorbed by the intestinal wall
