Nutrients are used by the body's cells as a source of energy
What else can I help you with?
Describe how nutrients are used by cells?
Nutrients are used by the body's cells as a source of energy
How are these nutrients used by your body?
Repair body cells and tissues.
The process by which the individual nutrients are used by the cells in the body is called?
Metabolism.
The cells in your body need nutrients and other materials to stay alive To be used by your cells the materials must be?
broken down and converted into a form that the cells can use for energy, growth, and maintenance. This process involves digestion, absorption, and delivery of nutrients to the cells through the bloodstream. The nutrients are then taken up by the cells and used for various cellular processes to support life.
How do cells take in nutrients to support their functions and growth?
Cells take in nutrients through a process called endocytosis, where the cell membrane surrounds and engulfs the nutrients. Once inside the cell, the nutrients are broken down and used to support the cell's functions and growth.
What do proteins do for our bodies?
proteins are nutrients that are used to repair body cells and tissues.
What happens when cells are given nutrients?
When cells are given nutrients, they metabolize them, and grow and divide to create more cells. If they are not given nutrients, they die.
Do all cells assimilate nutrients?
The assimilation of nutrients refers to how cells use energy. Not all cells assimilate nutrients because some are not active.
What absorbtion is used for in digestive system?
Absorption allows the nutrients that were produced during digestion to get "sucked up" and passed to the cells. Remember, we are just a bunch of cells and we must keep them alive. So, the nutrients are absorbed, given to the cells (via the circulatory system), and then they can use the nutrients to survive.
Result of metabolism of energy nutrients?
During metabolism, energy nutrients are broken down and distributed to cells throughout the body. These nutrients are used to power cell functions.
What is the main sugar used by cells for energy?
Cells have multiple sources of nutrients including fats and sugars, that can be used to create energy. As far as sugar is concerned, glucose is the sugar that is used by cells to produce energy.
Chemically alter the make-up of nutrients changing them into a form that can be readily used by cells.?
Enzymes
