Starlings are small to medium-sized passerine birds in the family Sturnidae. The name Sturnidae comes from the Latin word for starling, sturnus. Many Asian species, particularly the larger ones, are called mynas, and many African species are known as glossy starlings because of their iridescent plumage.he shortest-bodied species is Kenrick's starling (Poeoptera kenricki), at 15 centimetres (6 in), but the lightest-weight species is Abbott's starling (Poeoptera femoralis), which is 34 grams (1.2 oz). The largest starling, going on standard measurements and perhaps weight, is the Nias hill myna (Gracula robusta).
Enzymes That Break Down Lipids. Lipase breaks down the lipids in food. Lipid is a biochemical word meaning fat.. In the course of your normal cellular function, your body breaks down fats regularly. This occurs both in the digestive tract and at the cellular level. Chemicals called enzymes help your digestive tract and cells break down lipids, but you can't use enzymes to force lipid breakdown or to lose body fat.
gastric juices are found in the stomach; enzymes, acids, and mucus are in the gastric juices
