Study Notes
Salivary Glands
- Secrete saliva containing salivary amylase, which digests starches (polysaccharides) into maltose (disaccharide) and malto triose (trisaccharide)
- Play a role in carbohydrate digestion
Lingual Glands
- Secrete lingual lipase in the tongue, which digests fats and oils, as well as other lipids, into fatty acids
- Involved in lipid digestion
Digestive Functions
- Completes digestion of carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids
- Begins and completes digestion of nucleic acids
Liver Functions
Carbohydrate Metabolism
- Regulates glycogen synthesis and breakdown
- Involved in glucose metabolism
Lipid Metabolism
- Regulates lipid synthesis and breakdown
- Involved in cholesterol metabolism
