<u>Stomach</u> is the part of the GI tract does not actively participate in the digestion of carbohydrates.

Carbohydrates are first mechanically and chemically broken down in the mouth. Mastication, another term for chewing, breaks down the meals high in carbohydrates into ever-tinier bits. Saliva that covers the food particles is produced by salivary glands in the mouth cavity. Salivary amylase is an enzyme found in saliva.

Dietary carbohydrates are converted to glucose, fructose, and/or galactose in the small intestine and then absorbed into the blood. The breakdown and absorption of dietary carbohydrates can be influenced by a variety of factors.

mRNA or messenger RNA is synthesized during the process of transcription, from DNA molecule which is used as a template. mRNA contains information about protein synthesis (translation) in the form of nucleotide triplets or codons.

In the example above: reference book is DNA molecule (template for copies), copies are mRNA, wood is amino acids (building blocks) and doghouse is protein.
