1) the starches are NOT enzymatically digested until theyreach the duodenum; that is, no starch digestion occurs in themouth or stomach
2) analyses hydrolyze the starches in maltose
3) the pancreas is one place that produces the enzymes thatwill digest the starch
4) the disaccharides from the bread and from starch digestionwill be hydrolyzed at the brush border (micrvilli) of the smallintestine
5) bacteria will “eat” the fiber from the wheat germ thatpassed undigested into the large intestine
6) pancreatic lipase will digest the sodium chloride from thesalt
7) enzymatic digestion of the disaccharides will producesingle amino acids, which will be absorbed through tunnels in cellsand be transported to blood capillaries
8) cells will take in disaccharides and package then into achylomicron which will be transported to a lacteal
9) glucose will be absorbed through channels in cells liningthe small intestine and be transported to blood capillaries
