A. increased demand for natural resources; need to create environmental laws to protect natural resources for human consumption; need to develop air quality control systems for big business; need to ensure proper disposal of human waste
Answer: the answer is correct
Explanation:
Digestive juices break down food into the tiniest nutrient components. Proteins are broken down to amino acids; fats are broken down to fatty acids and glycerol; and carbohydrates are broken down into simple sugars for absorption of these vital nutrients. The animal diet needs carbohydrates, protein, and fat, as well as vitamins and inorganic components for nutritional balance. Digestive enzymes are enzymes that break down polymeric macromolecules into their smaller building blocks, in order to facilitate their absorption by the body.
