To Phavy do we know what disqualifies a lifer from getting conjugal visits besides being a sex offender and/or domestic violence. I have my husband in a state prison in CA and he has been in prison for 20 years but we needed to find out what qualifies him or disqualifies him from getting visits.
Proteins are digested in the stomach with the aid of secretions from the pancreas and the gall bladder. Proteins not fully digested in the stomach are digested in the small intestine.
Confidence votes 106. Protein digestion in humans begins in the stomach. The enzyme pepsin is activated from its' inactive form pepsinogen due to the acidic conditions of the stomach. Pepsin starts digestion of proteins by breaking down the many of polypeptides into shorter peptides. However, complete chemical digestion will not occur until proteins reach the duodenum and the jejunum of the small intestine. Here more enzymes come into play (proteases and peptidases) so that the protein is completely broken down into its' smallest building blocks (the monomers called amino acids).
