Detailed Solution

In chemical digestion the large carbohydrate, lipid, protein, and nucleic acid molecules in food are split into smaller molecules by hydrolysis.

Carbohydrate digestion begins in the mouth while protein digestion begins in the stomach.

End products of carbohydrates and proteins are monosaccharides and amino acids respectively.

Carbohydrate digestion takes place at pH 6.8 and 7.8. Protein digestion takes place at pH 1.8 and 7.8.
