Correct vs Incorrect: Where Does Digestion Happen?

The map in words

  • Wrong View: Stomach digests everything
    • Correct View: Multiple organs work together
      • Mouth: Salivary amylase breaks starch to simple sugar
        • Stomach: Pepsin partially digests proteins in acidic medium
          • Small Intestine: COMPLETE digestion occurs here
            • Bile from Liver: Emulsifies fats into small globules
              • Absorption through Villi into blood
                • Large Intestine: Water absorbed, waste formed
                  • Anus: Waste removed
            • Pancreatic Juice: Trypsin digests proteins, Lipase digests fats
            • Intestinal Juice: Converts to glucose, amino acids, fatty acids
