What is the importance of small intestine?
Carbohydrates, fats and proteins are fully digested in the small intestine.
What polymers are digested in small intestine?
carbs, proteins, nucleic acids, and fats
Name 4 polymers that are digested in the small intestine?
proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acids and lipids.
What is the role of the small intestine in the digestive system of proteins and fats?
In the small intestine, the food you eat continues being digested, and then the nutrients and proteins your body needs make their way out of the small intestine and into the rest of your body. Then the matter that is left over passes through the small intestine into the large intestine...causing you to go to the restroom.
What four polymers are digested in the small intestine?
The four polymers that are digested in the small intestine are proteins, carbohydrates, fats (lipids), and nucleic acids. Enzymes in the small intestine break down these polymers into their simpler monomer units, such as amino acids, sugars, fatty acids, and nucleotides, which can then be absorbed by the body.
What nutrients are digested in the small intestine?
The small intestine is where nearly all of the nutrients are digested. The stomach breaks down the food into a liquid and the colon absorbs water.
Which intestine do proteins carbohydrates and fat chemically digest?

What organ absorbs the digested food into the blood?
The small intestine absorbs digested food into the blood.

Where food is digested?
Do you mean where is food digested? In the Stomach and Small/Large Intestine. Thanks.
Where are proteins digested in your body and how?
Proteins are digested in the stomach and small intestine. In the stomach, the enzyme pepsin breaks down proteins into smaller peptides. These peptides are further broken down into amino acids in the small intestine by enzymes such as trypsin and chymotrypsin, which are released by the pancreas.
