As food passes through the GI tract, it mixes with digestive juices, causing large molecules of food to break down into smaller molecules. The body then absorbs these smaller molecules through the walls of the small intestine into the bloodstream, which delivers them to the rest of the body.

enzymes degrade proteins, lipids, and large carbohydrates to smaller building blocks in the digestive tract. why must these macr
Rom4ik [11]

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.
