These problems may include the following: Children born to teenage mothers are less likely to receive proper nutrition, health care, and cognitive and social stimulation. As a result, they are at risk for lower academic achievement.
The majority of carbohydrate digestion occurs in the small intestine. It is here that disaccharides (sugars composed of two monosaccharides) like sucrose, maltose, and lactose are broken down into monosaccharides, which are then absorbed directly into the cells that form the intestinal lining.igestion of starch begins in the mouth with the chewing of food (mastication) and the production of amylases immediately breaking down certain starches.
The two processes that occur are digestion and absorption. Digestion is the process by which your body breaks down food into small nutrient chemicals. While absorption is the â¦ process in which when the small nutrient molecules go through a wall of the digestive system and into the blood.he two types of movement in the small intestine are peristalsis  and segmental movements. Segmental movements, which are more common  in the small intestine than peristalsi â¦ s, move the digesting food  back and forth in a part of the small intestine.
