secretion of digestive enzymes from the pancreas secretion of HCl from the stomach epithelium secretion of bile salts from the liver and HCO3- from the pancreas uptake of glucose from the bloodstream by cells throughout the body
It increases the blood's capacity to deliver oxygen to tissues. It increases fat storage. It increases glycogen stores in muscle and liver. It increases fatty-acid levels in the blood.
They are made of bone instead of cartilage, so they are harder and more durable. No other group of fish has pharyngeal jaws. They are extremely specialized, and function only in transporting food from the front of the mouth to the throat. They articulate with the braincase and have extra muscles attached, so they are capable of biting.
by pepsin and HCl in the stomach by lipases in the small intestine by amylases in the mouth and small intestine by aquaporins in the large intestine
They include fatty acid binding proteins, which are involved in fat absorption. They catalyze the cleavage of bonds leading to the release of fatty acids and other small lipids. They emulsify lipids, meaning that large masses of fat molecules are broken into smaller masses. They activate the enzymes that are responsible for digesting fats.
