The human digestive system begins with ingestion of food in the oral cavity. In the mouth, both mechanical and chemical digestion occur. Mechanical digestion involves chewing food into smaller pieces, while chemical digestion begins as saliva contains the enzyme ptyalin which breaks down starches. From the mouth, food moves to the esophagus and into the stomach. In the stomach, hydrochloric acid kills bacteria and activates the enzyme pepsin to break down proteins into peptides. The partially digested contents then enter the small intestine where pancreatic juices and bile further break nutrients into absorbable molecules like amino acids and monosaccharides.

MULUT The oral cavity The first step in the process of food digestion is putting the food into the oral cavity. Now imagine that you were eating fried rice. A spoonful of rice is being put into your mouth/oral cavity, and you then chew it. In the oral cavity the food is mixed with the saliva to be chewed.
What happens when the food is chewed?
When the food is being chewed,. This process is a part of the
mechanical digestion. The mechanical digestion is a process of breaking the food physically into smaller parts. Next, the food will be digested chemically. The chemical digestion is a breakingdown process of food into smaller molecules by using enzymes. MOUTH In the mouth there is a mechanical and chemical digestion Functions of Ptyalin enzyme to convert Amilum into simple carbohydrates (maltose) The enzyme is produced by: 1. Sub mandible gland 2. Sub lingual gland TONGUE • The main function of the tongue in digestive system is sensitive organ , the tongue helps moving the food to place it on between the teeth • The tongue have a specific area sense KERONGKONGAN LAMBUNG • Menghasilkan HCl (Asam Clorida) berfungsi mengaktifkan pepsinogen menjadi pepsin untuk memecah protein menjadi pepton • Enzim Renin berfungsi menggumpalkan protein susu menjadi kasein • HCl juga berfungsi membunuh kuman yang masuk bersama makanan USUS HALUS • Usus halus terdiri dari 3 bagian yaitu usus 12 jari (Duodenum), usus kosong(Jejenum), dan usus penyerapan (Illeum) • Pada usus 12 jari terdapat muara saluran empedu dan kelenjar pankreas • Cairan empedu berfungsi untuk mengemulsi lemak agar bisa dicerna lebih lanjut USUS HALUS Pankreas mengeluarkan enzim sebagai berikut: 1. Tripsinogen diaktifkan oleh entrokinase yang berfungsi untuk mencerna protein menjadi asam amino 2. Amilase mencerna amilum menjadi glukosa 3. Lipase mencerna lemak menjadi asam lemak dan gliserol Pencernaan secara kimiawi USUS BESAR
