I'm guessing that you mean Paramecium, a single-celled organism?  Biochemically, metabolism would be the same as any one of our cells.  Digestion refers to breaking down food into nutrients that are then made available to individual cells.  Paramecium don't have a digestive tract though they do have an "oral groove."\n\nYou might want to ask this question over in zoology to get a biologist's more informed opinion.\n\nAloha

are you asking what digests food? the protien would be pepsin and HCL in the stomach creating pepsinogen, the fries would be amalayse from the pancrease and in slavatory glands, and the high fructose corn syrup would go thru a process called metabolic shunting after absorbtion to be converted directly into glucagon, then metabolised into a cell with insulin... that what you were looking for?

Yes, it is C, pardner.\n\nHelps cell to continually turn over intracellular proteins before they get too old or nonfunctional. Breaks them up into lttle pieces. On the macro level, keeps you looking like yourself instead of slowly fading away.\n\n"Lysosomes contain various hydrolytic enzymes that are capable of digesting nucleic acids, polysaccharides, fats and proteins. The inside of a lysosome is acidic."\nhttp://biology.about.com/library/weekly/...\n\n2004 Nobel Prize:\n"Proteasomes are complex structures inside cells that break down proteins. Ubiquitin proteasome system is a barrel-shaped multi-protein complex that can specifically digest other proteins into short polypeptides and amiino acids in an ATP-driven reaction."\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/proteasome...\n\n\nHere is a good site for checking out things in this subject area. It is a wonderful biology site.\n\nhttp://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultrane...\n\nThe Golgi apparatus functions in transporting materials out of the cell. \n\nDon't forget to pull up the urls and read more.

your body absorbes the liquid from the food you eat...waste is then produced...aka poo :)

Digesting cellulose requires Cellulase which is not secreted by mammals...only bacteria\nWe dont have cellulase secreting bacteria in our gut (cows have them,probably in their appendix)

Digestive system starts in mouth with the help of enzyme,salivary amylase which is used to start the digestion of carbonhydrate,it digests the starb into maltose..but not finish yet,it will be continued in duodenum...it is chewed and swallowed into the body through oesphagus with the help of a process called peristalsis,muscular contration...when it reach the stomach,the glands on the stomach wall will be stimulated and they will produce gastric juice which consists of hydrochloric acid (which is used to kill the bacteria on the food),pepsin (which is used to digest protein into the polypeptide),renin (which is used to coagulate the liquid milk protein caseinogen into solid form casein) and mucus too to smoothen the movement of the chyme....when the pyloric spintcher open,the chyme will flow into duodenum where pancreatic juice and bile react on it...bile is secreted through the liver and store in the gall bladder...it is used to emulsify the lipids into oil droplets so that it can be digested more efficiently...it is also used to neutralise the acidic properties of the chyme...pancreatic juice is secreted by the pancreas which consists of pancreatic amylase,trypsin and lipase...Pancreatic amylase complete the digestion of the starch into maltose...trypsin digests the polypeptides into peptides whereas the lipase complete the digestion of the lipids into one glycerol molecule and three fatty acids....then it flows into the ileum and intestinal juice is secreted right there to digest what is left behind.. it secrets erepsin and maltase...erepsin is used to digest the peptides into amino acid while maltase digests the maltose into two glucose...in fact the intestine will secret the essential enzyme to digest the entire starch such as sucrase to digest sucrose and lactase to digest lactose...it depends...

MOUTH -  The teeth break food into smaller bits, which are  formed into a soft ball, called a bolus, by the tongue. Saliva lubricates the food and begins chemical digestion.\n \nPHARYNX -, or throat The pharynx pushes the bolus into the   esophagus.\n  \nOESOPHAGUS - The bolus is moved through the 10-inch esophagus by a series of coordinated, wave-like contractions. At the end of the short journey, the opening to the stomach relaxes and opens until the bolus of food passes, then closes again to prevent stomach contents from backing up. \n \n STOMACH - The stomach muscles pummel food and churn it with gastric juices containing enzymes and hydrochloric acid, killing potentially harmful bacteria and microorganisms and continuing the breakdown of food into smaller and smaller pieces. The resulting material is now called chyme. Four hours (longer if a meal includes fatty foods)\n \nSMALL INTESTINE -The duodenum (the first section of the small intestine) adds bile and pancreatic juice to the chyme, which helps the intestines digest and absorb nutrients from the food. Most digestion and absorption take place in the small intestine. Food first spends four hours in the duodenum, then two hours in the rest of the small intestine \n\nLARGE INTESTINE - Sodium and other salts, and most importantly water, are absorbed here. Leftover waste material is slowly pushed through the colon by muscular contractions until it reaches the rectum. Stool is ultimately eliminated from the body during a bowel movement from the rectum.  \n\n\nHOW LONG BOLUS IS DERE ( TIME)\n\nMOUTH- MINUTES OR LESS\n\nPHARYNX- SECONDS\n\nOESOPHAGUS- One to six seconds for liquids  \n            30 to 60 seconds for solids\n\nSTOMACH- Four hours (longer if a meal includes fatty foods)\n\nSMALL INTESTINE-Food first spends four hours in the  \nduodenum, then two hours in the rest of the small intestine\n\nLARGE INTESTINE-14 HRS

Nothing, it's your digestive system digesting your food.

Throughout the whole digestion process, food will pass from your mouth to your stomach before finally being processed into waste and expelled from the rectum. You are right that there are two types of digestion that there are two types of digestion, mechanical and chemical. Mechanical include such action as the breaking down of food by chewing with your teeth that forms the food into a pulp and also throughout your whole digestive tract peristalsis helps through the contraction of your intestine, throat and stomach to help food pass through. Chemical digestion involves breaking down of food through chemical means like the amilayse enzyme from salive that coverts starch into maltose. Stomach acids, bile, lipase and various other chemicals secreted by the various organs also include chemical digestion.

OK, so if you don't digest plasmid you'll get three bands:\n\nlinear, nicked and supercoiled.\n\nHowever, you did digest it, with 2 enzymes with 1 site each (I think?).\n\nA complete digestion would yield 2 bands.  Incomplete digestion would give those two bands, plus linearized (single cut, either enzyme).

first part is D,but the second part which lysis the food is lysosome

Here's a website on the process of digestion, in very simplistic terms.\n\nhttp://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/pubs/yrdd/\n\nNot sure how detailed you need chemical reactions, but:\n\nCarbs: begin in the mouth (but mainly in small intestine), salivary amylase hydrolyzes starch into maltose. The gastric juices in the stomach inactivates the amylase (pH too acidic), and starch completes in the small intestine via pancreate amylase. Maltose is a dissacharide which breaks down into monosaccharides (glucose) via intestinal enzymes (maltase and lactase).\n\nFats: occurs in small intestines via lipases (secreted by the pancreas). First, they need to be emulsified (increase surface area) via bile from the liver (has bile salts). Lipases then convert lipids into fatty acids and monoglycerides which are absorbed into the blood in the small intestine.\n\nProteins: starts in the stomach and completes in small intestine. Stomach has proteolytic enzymes (pepsins) which breaks proteins down to smaller peptides, which are broken down into amino acids via pancreatic enzymes (trypsin, chymotrypsin, and carboxypeptidases) into dipeptides and amino acids.

digested food that has been through the digestive system and it is really digested chyme

The corn is made up of two things, cellulite and the 'heart'.\nThe celluite is the material that covers the soft innerds of the corn.  That is what is not broken down in digestion.  If you ate creamed corn, most of it would be digested.

This food is entered into the body via the mouth, where enzymes such as lysozyme begin to breakdown the food while it is chewed. When this food is broken down into smaller pieces it can then be swallowed, where it travels down the oesophagus towards the stomach.\n\nThe stomach then continues to break down the foodstuff. The stomach at this point is filled with a type of acid that further breaks down the food, until it is in the duodenum, which is part of the small intestine. It is here where the food is completely broken down, in the following manner:\n\n    * Proteins are broken down into amino acids\n    * Fats into fatty acids\n    * Complex sugars into simple sugars\n\nFrom here, you can see that a complex product (the food you eat) is stripped bare, until the substances that they are broken down to can be used by the body in some way. By breaking down these foodstuffs to their most basic nature, the body can then rebuild these substances as and when required, for example, to create enzymes.\n\nThe Physiological Homeostasis page in the Regulation of Biological Systems tutorial looks at how the body determines when a particular action is required, such as the increase of blood sugar concentration. Also, the Cell Biology Tutorial page ADP and ATP introduces ATP, the body's biological energy, and how it is created, which is continued on the following page.\n\nLink below tells the rest of the story.

Well the food is broken down by stomach acid (HCl). I'm not a biologist, but I believe all food undergoes the same general reaction.

Do you just swallow your food? U yourself smash your food. Then the enzymes in our body'll digest it after separating the nutrients as Carbohydrates,fats etc.\n\nFor the purpose of separation & digestion food has to be broken down.
