Amino acids, which serve as the "building blocks" of proteins, are disassembled. These tiny molecules can be absorbed through the stomach wall after being released.

<h3>Describe how the macronutrients in your diet are digested and then put back together to form the cell structure.</h3>

The principal macromolecules, from which all life is derived, are macrounits in our diet. The smaller subunits of these macromolecules must be broken down in order to be released. The circulatory system carries the digestively released components to the body's cells. These subunits serve as the building blocks for the macromolecules required for cellular structure and function, which are then put together by cells.

Proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates are examples of macromolecules.

The fact that all three macromolecules are hydrocarbons means that the majority of their atoms are made up of hydrogen and carbon.

Nitrogen atoms are found in proteins and in lipids.

Carbon atoms make up carbohydrates.

Simple carbohydrates are formed when complex carbohydrates are hydrated (by adding hydrogen and oxygen ions).

Dehydration of simple carbohydrates causes them to bind together in chains to create complex carbs. This can be reversed.
