Sagot :
After absorption, the end products of carbohydrate and protein digestion enter the blood system. The above is included in the digestion of carbohydrate and protein in the body.
Here are the steps for carbohydrate:
- Carbohydrates after being digested in the intestine will be absorbed by the walls of the small intestine in the form of monosaccharides.
- Monosaccharides are carried by the bloodstream mostly to the liver and some are carried to certain tissue cells and undergo further metabolic processes.
- In the liver, monosaccharides undergo a synthesis process to produce glycogen, are oxidized to CO2 and H2O, or are released to be carried by the bloodstream to the parts of the body that need them.
Here are the steps for protein:
- In the body, proteins are converted into amino acids by several hydrolysis reactions and related enzymes.
- Enzymes that work in the protein hydrolysis process, including pepsin, trypsin, chemotrypsin, carboxy peptidase, and amino peptidase.
- Proteins that have been broken down into amino acids are then absorbed through the walls of the small intestine and into the blood vessels.
- After being absorbed and into the blood vessels, most of these amino acids are directly used by the tissues.
- Others undergo the process of releasing amine groups (N-containing groups) in the liver.
- The process of releasing amine groups is known as protein deamination.
