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.

____transport doesn't need an input of energy of the cell. (fill in the blank)
inn [45]

Answer:

<u>Passive</u> transport

Explanation:

There are two ways molecules can get in and out of the cell. These processes are called Passive and Active transport.

Passive transport is the movement of molecules and materials from high to low concentration. No energy is needed for this process because it happens naturally.

This is in contrast to what Active transport is, where energy is needed because it moves the molecules or materials against the concentration gradient where they move from lower to higher concentration.
