Pancreas: This organ is located behind the stomach. It produces digestive enzymes and releases them into the duodenum. These enzymes include lipase, which breaks down fats, pancreatic amylase, which breaks down carbohydrates, proteases, which break down proteins.
Digestive enzymes facilitate the chemical breakdown of food into smaller, absorbable components. Enzymes called amylases break down starches into sugar molecules; proteases break down proteins into amino acids; and lipases break down fat into its component parts.
