The Reedy River put Greenville on the mapâand, like its meandering currents and rushing falls, is the centerpiece for its rise, fall, and triumphant rise again. It has humble beginnings. Greenvilleâs Reedy River starts with a few springs seeping out of the ground just north in Travelers Rest off Ebenezer Church Road. It gathers strength, breadth, and force as it flowsâtouching thousands of lives by the time it reaches its most prominent feature in the heart of the city.
Role of enzymes in metabolism. Some enzymes help to break down large nutrient molecules, such as proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, into smaller molecules. This process occurs during the digestion of foodstuffs in the stomach and intestines of animals. Other enzymes guide the smaller, broken-down molecules through the intestinal wall into the bloodstream.
Chemical digestion. The most important function of physical digestion is to increase the surface area of the food you eat. This makes it easier for enzymes to act on the large insoluble food molecules and break them down into small soluble ones.An enzyme is a protein molecule.Each type of enzyme catalyses a particular reaction or type of reaction.nzymes in the digestive system speed up the breakdown of the food. Enzymes are made in many places along the digestive system. 1  Carbohydrases-enzymes which break down carbohydrates into simple sugars. 2  Proteases-enzymes which break down proteins, ending up with amino acids.
