The digestion of the food in humans begins in the mouth. In the mouth, the salivary amylase enzyme digests and breaks down a small amount of the starch present in the food. The digestion process begins right in the mouth. and continues till the intestine. The carbohydrates (starch) are the ones whose digestion starts in the mouth.
Hence, the blanks can be filled with 'mouth and amylase' respectively.

Answer:
Its primary role in red blood cells is to maintain levels of red blood cells with low levels of this compound are more suceptible to oxidative damage.
Explanation:
Pentose phosphte pathway helps in the formation of reducing equivalent named NADPH.
The so formed NADPH is used to maintain a normal cellular level of glutathione which act as antioxidant.
As glutathione is not mantained in its normal level, it ability to reduce to adverse effect of hydrogen peroxide is cut down.
As a result cell is more suceptible to oxidative damage.
Electrons are brought to the electron transport system by the oxidation of NADH and FADH2.
The electron transport chain is a group of proteins located within the inner membrane of the mitochondria which transport electrons. Electrons are passed from one member of the transport chain to another in a series of redox reactions, forming a proton gradient which is then used for ATP production.
NADH and FADH2 are reduced electron carriers which are oxidized into NAD+ and FAD near the beginning of the electron transport chain.
