DIGESTION

Digestion - the breaking down of nutrients  into its monomers under the action of enzymes of the gastrointestinal tract. Important 1) monomers have no specific specificity, (2) monomers can be transported through cell membranes, (3) monomers can be used immediately by cells for anabolism (synthesis of new ATP) and catabolism (oxidation and energy release).   Essence of digestion: enzymatic hydrolysis (hydrolysis of proteins to amino acids, fats - to fatty acids and glycerol, carbohydrates - to monosaccharides). Digestive functions of the gastrointestinal tract : 1) secretion, (2) motor(peristalstic expolsion food), (3) absorption. Non-digestive functions of the gastrointestinal tract: (4) protective, (5) excretory (for example, excretion of bilirubin), (6) endocrine (synthesis and secretion of gastrointestinal hormones into the blood), (7) antianemic (iron absorption, secretion of the internal factor of Castle for assimilation vitamin B12).
