In the pancreas, lipase converts fat to:
glycerol and fatty acids |
|
complex carbohydrates |
|
amino acids |
|
simple sugars |
The acids produced by the pancreas contain several enzymes that aid in digestion. Lipase converts fat to glycerol and fatty acids. Pancreatic amylase breaks down complex carbohydrates into simple sugars. Trypsin converts polypeptides (the building blocks of protein) into amino acids.
