Which type of sugar is absorbed most quickly by the body?
Simple carbohydrates absorb in the body more easily. They also provide the quickest source of energy to the body. Complex carbohydrates have to breakdown into simple carbohydrates before they can be absorbed by the body.
What type of molecules are carbohydrates absorbed into the body as?
sugars monosacarids
Form of Carbohydrates that is not absorbed by the body that prevents colon cancer?
fiber
What nutrient is the first easiest to be broken down and absorbed for energy use in the body?
Carbohydrates are the nutrient that is the easiest to be broken down and absorbed for energy use in the body. Carbohydrates are quickly converted into glucose, which is then used by the body for energy.
Nutrient that needs to be absorbed before exercise?
Carbohydrates provide glucose, the body's main source of energy, which needs to be absorbed before exercise to fuel muscles and optimize performance.
Where does the body store carbohydrate short term?
Carbohydrates are absorbed by the body and converted into glucose. The glucose can be stored as fat or as glycogen in the liver or the muscles. There is no short term storage of carbohydrates.
What process breaks down most carbohydrates into simpler forms for absorption in the body?
The process that breaks down most carbohydrates into simpler forms for absorption in the body is called digestion. During digestion, enzymes in the mouth, stomach, and small intestine break down carbohydrates into sugars that can be absorbed by the body.
Carbohydrates are hydrolysed into and absorbed as?
fatty acid
When carbohydrates are digested what molecules can be absorbed?
monosaccharides

What is the first macromolecule to be enzymatically attacked immediately following ingestion?
Carbohydrates are the first macromolecules to be enzymatically attacked following ingestion. Digestive enzymes in the mouth and stomach break down carbohydrates into simpler sugars like glucose that can be absorbed by the body.
