Question

Proteins are called the building blocks of the body. They’re needed for growth and development and to repair the normal wear and tear of the body. The body needs to digest proteins to make them available to fulfill these functions. Arrange the steps of the digestion of proteins in the correct order.

Amino acids enter the bloodstream and are circulated throughout the body.
Amino acids are absorbed by the capillaries in the jejunum.
In mechanical digestion, the teeth grind food and break it in to smaller parts.
Churning and the enzyme pepsin break down protein in the stomach.
Trypsin and chymotrypsin act on the proteins to break them down in the duodenum.
The pancreas releases the enzymes trypsin and chymotrypsin.

Answer 1

In mechanical digestion, the teeth grind food and break it in to smaller parts.

Churning and enzyme pepsin break down protein in the stomach.

The pancreas releases the enzyme trypsin and chymotrypsin.

Amino acids are absorbed by the capillaries in the jejunum

Amino acids enter the bloodstream and are then circulated throughout the body.

Trypsin and chymotrypsin act on the proteins to break them down in the duodenum.

Answer 2

Order of steps are as follow;

1. In mechanical digestion, the teeth grind food and break it in to smaller parts.

2.Churning and enzyme pepsin break down protein in the stomach.

3. The pancreas releases the enzyme trypsin and chymotrypsin.

4. Amino acids are absorbed by the capillaries in the jejunum

5. Amino acids enter the bloodstream and are then circulated throughout the body.

Basically this says, food with source of protein is digested mechanically in your mouth, small pieces are then further broken down in the stomach through enzymatic action pepsin and those that are secreted by the pancreas, further absorbed by capillaries and circulated throughout the body via blood.
