The process of lipid digestion begins even before you take your first bite of food. Just the smell of food can begin digestive j
ikadub [295]

Answer:

The given statements have been rearranged in the following order to depict the flow of events that account for lipid digestion in the human body:

  1. Mechanical digestion by chewing breaks food down.
  2. During digestion, gastric lipases break down fat into fatty acids and triglyceride molecules.
  3. Gastric lipase digests some triglycerides.
  4. The pancreas secretes gastric lipase into the small intestine, where the majority of fat digestion occurs.
  5. Lipid ­digesting enzymes from the pancreas break down the triglycerides into two free fatty acids and a monoglyceride.
  6. Lingual lipase is secreted from the pancreas and breaks down triglycerides.
  7. With the aid of pancreatic lipase, fats are further broken down into free fatty acids and monoglycerides.
  8. Products of fat digestion are packaged into micelles and transported to the enterocytes.

The process is started in the mouth. Action of the teeth physically breaks down the food and increases it surface area that allows for better access to it for the enzymes to carry out mechanical digestion. Gastric lipases are those in the stomach, most of the lipid digestion takes place in the small intestine with the help of enzymes secreted by the pancreas and the small intestine itself. After digestion, the final products are taken up by the lymphatic system.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

In humans, the hormone testosterone enters cells and binds to specific proteins, which in turn bind to specific sites on the cel
Crank

Answer:

They act to regulate the expression of specific genes (androgen-responsive)

Explanation:

Testosterone is a reproductive hormone in male humans. Testosterone as well as its closely related hormones e.g dihydrotestosterone, all belong to a class of hormones called "Androgens".

Androgens operate by entering into a cell and binds with specific androgen-receptor proteins (AR proteins). This contact activates the AR proteins, forming an androgen-receptor complex.

This complex then translocates into the nucleus of specific cells to bind to the DNA. Once it binds, it either inhibits or promotes the expression of specific genes (androgen-responsive). Hence, AR proteins are transcription factors because they play a significant role in regulating transcription of specific genes i.e. turning 'on' or 'off' of specific genes.

This process helps to direct the development of male sexual characteristics.
