The process that requires energy  for digested nutrients to pass through the small intestinal wall into the villi is called active transport

In the process of digestion, complex food molecules are broken down into macromolecules which are absorbed by the body. The absorption of nutrients such as glucose, vitamins, and amino acids takes place in the small intestine.

The small intestine contains tiny hair-like projections called the microvilli that are rich in blood vessels. These structures help in the absorption of nutrients.

As the concentration of these nutrients is higher in the bloodstream than in the intestine. The absorption of nutrients requires energy for the movement of nutrients from lower concentration to higher concentration. This energy-driven transportation is called active transport.

During which process is ethanol produced?
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Alcohol fermentation

Explanation:

When oxygen availability is low, the cell can't perform aerobic respiration to breakdown glucose. Instead, anaerobic respiration must be performed. This occurs in cells which consume large amounts of energy, such as muscle cells. Anaerobic respiration produces much less energy than aerobic respiration

One type of anaerobic respiration formed by yeast is called alcohol fermentation (also called ethanol fermentation). This begins with glycolysis, where one molecule of glucose is broke down into 2 molecules of pyruvate. The energy from this reaction generates 2 molecules of ATP, and converts NAD+ to NADH.

Then, the two molecules of pyruvate are further broke down into 2 acetaldehydes (releasing two molecules of carbon dioxide as a by-product). These two molecules of acetaldehyde are then converted into tw molecules of ethanol, using the H ions from NADH, converting it back to NAD+. See the attached picture

This process is taken advantage of to brew beer and wine.
