Answer: Small intestines
Explanation: Digestion of carbohydrates begins in the mouth mechanically and through salivary amylase. It passes down to the stomach by parastalsis, digested further and goes to the small intestines where their absorption begins. Carbohydrates are a source of glucose, that most organs use as their primary energy source. Indigestible carbohydrates and fibers travels down to the large intestines where they are digested by bacteria or eliminated as waste through the anus.
The small intestines consist of microvilli that increase surface area for maximum nutrient absorption. Carbohydrates are absorbed by the small intestines via the jejunum, taken to the blood stream then transported to the liver where glycolysis and most metabolic pathways take place, for energy production.

Answer:
Answer is C.
Explanation:
For A and B, a base substitution affects one of the three bases that comprise a codon, the DNA/RNA unit that corresponds to a particular amino acid. If one base is substituted, one codon and therefore one amino acid will be affected. Codons have built-in redundancy, so even by changing one base, the new codon sometimes still corresponds to the same amino acid. Therefore, a base substitution at most affects one amino acid, and sometimes doesn't affect it all.
Frameshift mutations cause a lot more trouble. These occur when you have a deletion or insertion that changes the number of bases in your gene. As a result, the "frame" of the codons changes (everything shifts one way or the other by the number of bases added/removed). This affects EVERY codon downstream of the mutation, so you can imagine that such a mutation would have a bigger effect the closer to the start of the gene it occurs. This is why C is correct.
