What is protein broken into?
All nutrients are broken down into their respective monomers in order to be absorbed into the blood stream. The monomers of a protein are amino acids - this is what your body's cells use to build up other proteins.

Is a fish's digestive system intracellular or extracellular?
A bony fish's digestive system is an extracellular process - the food in ingested, taken into the stomach where acid and compression works to break it down. It then transits into the intestinal system where it is completely broken down and the nutrients absorbed into the blood stream. At this point the nutrients will go from extracellular to intracellular as they are absorbed by the body tissues from the blood stream.
How do many animal cells get the energy they need?
