Answer:

to ease absorption

Explanation:

Glucose is a monosaccharide while starch is a polysaccharide. The solubility of glucose to starch in the blood is high. Blood can only transport simple sugars. The digestion of starch begins in the mouth where salivary amylase hydrolyses starch into maltose. In the ileum, enzyme maltase from the pancreatic juice digests maltose into glucose which can be absorbed by diffusion and active transport across the epithelial lining of the villi into the capillaries beneath.

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Because oxygen is circulated throughout the body via the bloodstream, there is a strong connection between the cardiovascular system and the <em><u>respiratory</u></em> system.

Explanation:

The cardiovascular system is responsible for the transport of oxygen to all tissues of the body, in addition to the removal of carbon dioxide, which depends on the close interaction with the respiratory system.

A summary of the strong connection between the cardiovascular and respiratory systems is :

Blood contains red blood cells, which are responsible for transporting O₂ and CO₂ by binding to the hemoglobin molecule, present in these structures. The respiratory system is responsible for providing air with O₂ and removing CO₂, a process that depends on gas exchange at the level of the pulmonary alveolus.
