"Lysosomes"
Incoming nutrients are stored in vacuoles before they are broken down by lysosomes. Lysosomes contain enzymes that can break down various molecules such as proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates for the cell to utilize as energy or building blocks. This process is important for nutrient processing and recycling within the cell.
Yes, if by food, you mean nutrients. The vacuole is the structure of the cell that stores everything it might need in the future. This is why one can go without food and water for days, every time you eat or drink something, your brain is hardwired to think that this will be the last time you'll be taking a drink/bite out of something. So...most of the nutrients taken into our bodies are stored.
Nutrients that do not need to be broken down before absorption include vitamins, minerals, and water. These substances can be absorbed directly into the bloodstream through the intestinal walls. Certain forms of nutrients, such as simple sugars (like glucose) and some small fatty acids, can also be absorbed without further digestion. However, proteins and complex carbohydrates must be broken down into amino acids and simple sugars, respectively, before absorption.
Food is broken down into nutrients by the digestive system. Ingested food is transformed into usable nutrients by mechanical and chemical processes in the digestive system.
Food has nutrients in it- substances that give our body many important ...Beforenutrients can go to work foodmust be broken down so that they canpass into ourbody. ... Starches must be broken down into sugars before our body can use them. ...It is a component of haemoglobin, which carries oxygen to red blood cells.
Nutrients need to be broken down into smaller molecules so that they can be absorbed and utilized by the body. This process allows the nutrients to be transported through the bloodstream to cells where they can be used for energy, growth, and repair. Additionally, breaking down nutrients releases the energy stored within them for various biological processes.
The small bowel absorbs nutrients from food but first it must be broken down into amino acids ie: proteins, carbohydrates, fibre etc... before being transported round the body.
Digestive system
There are several nutrients that are required by the human body that are not broken down by the body or destroyed by heat, including:* ...* ...* calcium* iron* ...
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.
A promise is broken before it is held.
food isn't exactly broken into molecules. molecules are collections of atoms. those would be too small to see. but food is broken down so the nutrients can be gathered. the food is broken down in the stomach, then, the food goes through the intestines where the nutrients and water are gathered
