<span>The absorption of iron is reduced when you have a diet high in fiber and phytates. Even though an excess of fiber can have an effect in the body’s ability to absorb some minerals, fiber is very safe and even necessary in reasonable amounts. phytatic acids on the other hand are responsible of binding metallic cations reducing the capacity of the body of absorbing iron, calcium and zinc and should be consumed with moderation.</span>

Answer:

1. Nutrientes:

- alimento  

- oxígeno (O2)

2. Productos de la nutrición animal:

- residuos orgánicos  

- dióxido de carbono (CO2)

Explanation:

Los alimentos son sustancias químicas que los animales ingieren a fin de que el organismo transforme dichos compuestos en nutrientes los cuales son requieridos para la generación, el crecimiento y la reconstrucción de células y tejidos.

El oxígeno (O2) es un nutriente escencial para la vida el cual se absorbe mediante el proceso de respiración. Este proceso posibilita la absorción de otros nutrientes obtenidos a través de la alimentación.

Los residuos orgánicos representan productos de la nutrición animal los cuales se descomponen naturalmente para formar parte de la materia orgánica. En animales, los desechos órganicos son eliminados a través de los excrementos o en la orina.  

El dióxido de Carbono (CO2) es un producto de la respiración. En animales, la respiración celular consume oxígeno y compuestos orgánicos con el objetivo de producir energía en forma de ATP. Como concecuencia del proceso de respiración, los animales liberan CO2 al medio ambiente.
