💡 Memory Trick:💡 Trik Ingatan: "Digestive enzymes end in -ase" | "Mouth = Amylase, Stomach = Pepsin, Duodenum = All, Ileum = Finish""Enzim pencernaan berakhir dengan -ase" | "Mulut = Amilase, Perut = Pepsin, Duodenum = Semua, Ileum = Selesai"
Human Digestive System Mouth Amylase Esoph. Stomach Pepsin (pH 2) Liver Bile Pancreas Small Intestine Trypsin, Lipase, Maltase Large Intestine (Water absorption) SPM: Absorption in ILEUM
Peristalsis Mechanism Circular contract Bolus Longitudinal contract Relaxed Peristalsis = Wave of muscular contraction pushing food along the gut

⚡ Stages of NutritionPeringkat Nutrisi

StagePeringkatDescriptionKeterangan
1. Ingestion1. PengambilanTaking food into the mouthMemasukkan makanan ke dalam mulut
2. Digestion2. PencernaanBreaking down large molecules (physical + chemical)Memecahkan molekul besar (fizikal + kimia)
3. Absorption3. PenyerapanSmall molecules absorbed into bloodstreamMolekul kecil diserap ke dalam aliran darah
4. Assimilation4. AsimilasiAbsorbed molecules used by cellsMolekul yang diserap digunakan oleh sel
5. Egestion5. PenyahtinjaanRemoval of undigested materialPenyingkiran bahan yang tidak hadam
Villus Structure (Absorption) Epithelium Microvilli Lacteal Blood cap. Where Nutrients Go Blood: Glucose, Amino acids Lacteal: Fatty acids, Glycerol SPM: 1 cell thick + microvilli
Enzyme Action in Digestion Mouth Amylase: Starch→Maltose Stomach Pepsin: Protein→Polypep. Duodenum Trypsin, Lipase, Amylase Ileum Maltase, Peptidase SPM: Which enzyme acts WHERE and on WHAT Bile is NOT an enzyme — it emulsifies fats

🇲🇾 Malaysian ContextKonteks Malaysia

Malaysian dietary guideline: "Suku-suku separuh" (quarter carbs, quarter protein, half vegetables). Traditional foods like nasi lemak (high fat) and roti canai (high carb) require balanced portions!Panduan pemakanan Malaysia: "Suku-suku separuh" (suku karbohidrat, suku protein, separuh sayur). Makanan tradisional seperti nasi lemak (tinggi lemak) dan roti canai (tinggi karbo) perlukan bahagian seimbang!
