Biology
1 answer:
KIM [24]3 years ago
6 0
The enzymes that digest carbohydrates are very specific and can only digest specific glucose monomers of a Polysaccharides. For example our body can digest starch since its made up of α-glucose monomers (the difference of α-glucose and β-glucose is just on the location of the hydroxl group). However <span>Polysaccharides</span> like cellulose are indigestible because cellulose is made up of β-glucose and the enzyme which digests polysaccharides in humans (amylase) cannot detect β-glucose linkages.

How did Claire’s digestion reaction rates tell you that the problem was in her small intestine, and not her stomach?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

Absorption of the nutrients will not happen.

Explanation:

Claire’s digestion reaction rates tell you that the problem was in her small intestine, and not her stomach because the intestine is responsible for the absorption of most of the nutrients produced from eating and drinking of food substances. If the absorption of the nutrients will not happen by the intestine, the whole homeostasis or equilibrium of the body disturbs and no growth of the cell  occurs.
