Glycolysis.
Proteins are broken down into amino acids, carbohydrates are broken down into sugars and fats are broken down into fatty acids and glycerol.
by enzymes
No, protein is broken down into amino acids. Simple sugars are only formed when carbohydrates are digested.
There are commonly know to be only 3 main nutrients which are carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids (fats). Lipids are broken down into fatty acids and glycerol. Proteins are broken down into amino acids, and carbohydrates are broken down into simple sugars like glucose.
carbohydrates, fats and proteins
Carbohydrates, lipids and proteins are types of carbon compound that are broken to produce simple molecules like carbon-dioxide and water.
Carbohydrate, lipids, or proteins can be broken down to make ATP. Carbohydrates are the molecules most commonly broken down to make ATP.
Carbohydrates, proteins, and fats are digested in the intestine, where they are broken down into their basic units.Carbohydrates into sugars,Proteins into amino acids,Fats into fatty acids and glycerol
Carbohydrates and fats are broken down in the digestive tract into the simple sugars, glucose, fructose, and galactose. The latter two can be converted by the body into glucose, which is distributed throughout the body via the bloodstream and is broken down into Carbon Dioxide and water in the mitochondria of cells. Proteins are broken down into their constituent amino acids, which are used to assemble new proteins throughout the body.
Carbohydrates begin digestion in the mouth with the help of the enzyme salivary amylase this process continues in the duodenum with the help of the enzyme amylase and it finishes off in the illeum still using amylase. Carbohydrates are broken down into polysaccharides which are chains of sugar and are then broken down into monosaccharides which are simple sugars. monosaccharides are the final break own product for carbohydrates. Proteins are digested in the stomach using the enzyme pepsin. continues to the duodenum and uses the enzyme trypsin and continues then to the illeum and uses the enzyme erepsin. proteins are broken down into polypeptides after this they are broken down into dipeptides and after this are then broken down into amino acids which is the final breakdown product. fats are broken down in the duodenum and the illeum . they are broken down in both using the enzyme lipase. they are broken down into fatty acids first and then into glycerol. glycerol is the final breakdown product for fats.
Carbohydrate, lipids, or proteins can be broken down to make ATP. Carbohydrates are the molecules most commonly broken down to make ATP.
