    Answer:

    Explanation:

    After amylase act on carbohydrates, the chyme pass through the oesophagus down to the dudoneum in the small intestine. Amylase also continue to break it down into disacharrides and enzymes like maltase, sucrase and lactase are released to further break it down into maltose, sucrose, and lactose then finally glucose, a way it can be absorbed easily by the epithelial walls.

    The digestion of lipids and protein begin in the dudoneum of small intestine.

    Trypsin act on protein and break it down to peptides. Peptidase is then released and break it to single chain peptides bond. In the small intestine, dipeptidases break it down into amino acids easily absorbed by the epithelial walls.

    The bile in the gall bladder produce enzyme called lipases which breakdown lipids and make it to undergo emulsification.
