Question

If your body lacks enzymes that break down carbohydrates, it would be unable to get __A__ for energy production. If you lacked the enzyme to digest proteins, you may not absorb enough __B__.
A)
-amino acid molecules
-fatty acid molecules
-sugar molecules

B)
-amino acids
-simple sugars
-fats

Answer 1

A.

The correct answer is sugar molecules.

The carbohydrates are the polymers of the sugar molecules. The carbohydrate is broken down into simple sugars, in case, the breaking down of the carbohydrates does not take place, the sugar molecules would not be available for the production of the energy.

B.

The correct answer is amino acids.

the proteins are the polymers of the amino acids. In case, the enzyme for the digestion of the protein is absent then it cannot be broken down into amino acids, and the amino acids cannot be absorbed by the body.

So, the blank A can be filled with sugar molecules and the blank B can be filled with amino acids.

Answer 2

If your body lacks enzymes that break down carbohydrates, it would be unable to get sugar molecules for energy production. If you lacked the enzyme to digest proteins, you may not absorb enough amino acids.

The digestive system in our body changes carbohydrates into glucose; also known as blood sugar to be use as an important source of energy. Meanwhile, amino acids are organic compounds that combine to form proteins, which are the building blocks of life.
