The digestion of different types of foods occurs in different areas of the digestive tract. Digestion of starch begins in the mouth with the chewing of food (mastication) and the production of amylases immediately breaking down certain starches.
starch is digested in the mouth by the enzyme carbohydrase (amylase), which digests them into dextrines (sugars or glocuse). protein is digested in the stomach by the enzyme â¦ protease, which converts them into amino acids.fats are digested in the duodenum (small intestine) with bile (from liver) and the enzyme lipase, which digests them into glycerol and fatty acids.he digestion of fat will begin in the small intestine, whereas the digestion of starch which begin in the mouth (the mouth contains the enzyme amylase, which helps break down â¦ starch).
