There are choices for this question namely:
<span>
proteins
starches
disaccharides
monosaccharides
</span>
The correct answer is "monosaccharides". Monosaccharides are the most basic form of sugar that can be absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. When we consume carbohydrates in the form of complex carbohydrates (i.e. starch) it needs to be acted upon by enzymes (initially, amylase) to break it down to smaller dextrans and disaccharides. Disaccharides will be further broken down by disaccharidases in the intestines to monosaccharides for them to be absorbed.

<em>Proteins are acted upon by pancreatic enzymes to break it down to smaller peptides.</em>

kumpel [21]
You may know that your body is made up of cells (trillions and trillions of them). You may also know that the reason you need to eat food—such as veggies—is so that you have the energy to do things like play sports, study, walk, and even breathe.But what exactly happens in your body to turn the food energy stored in broccoli into a form that your body can use? And how does energy end up stored in the broccoli to begin with, anyway?The answers to these questions have a lot to do with two important organelles: mitochondria and chloroplasts.
