Where must protein foods be digested before they can be absorbed?
In the Digestive system
Why foods need to be digested before cells can use it for energy?
it makes the molecules smaller and simpler
Where food is store before it is digested?
Food is stored before it is digested in your stomach.
Why can protein and starch not be absorbed directly into the body?
Because starch is a polymer of sugar molecules (lots of them all bound together as a store of sugar) and the cells in the body can only metabolize individual sugar molecules. Therefore the starch needs to be broken up into its individual sugars before it is any use to the cells.
Is digesting food an example of change of state?
Yes it is a change of state when the food is being digested. Solid food particles are changed into semisolid type of liquid in the stomach where it is further digested. Food molecules have to be changed into simple units before it can be absorbed into our cells.
Which part of food is not digested?
CelluloseAnswer:To be a nutrient a food material has to be digested and incorporated into the body as stored fat, converted to muscle or other protein, or converted to energy. So no nutrient as "not digested"/ Non-nutrient materials which provide other functions are fiber and water, and minerals asn trace chemicals such as salt, iron, zinc. Vitsmins can be regarded as supplimental to the body's own production. fibre can not be digested

Fats must be emulsified (broken down into small droplets) by bile in the duodenum before they can be digested.
What is digested in the Rectum?
Nothing is digested in the rectum, the rectum is the final storage place for feces before they are excreted.
What must proteins be broken down into before being absorbed?
Yes they do. the protein has to be digested in the stomach before absorbed there.
Why most food esten by humans must be digested before they can be used by the body?
Food must be digested before it can be used by the human body. This is due to the fact that food molecules are too big for the body to do anything with, so the body requires chemical and mechanical digestion to pull out the nutrients inside the food. Anything left over after the nutrients are used up is expelled from the body via the excretory system.
Which is digested before being absorbed?
All food is broken down before digestion.
What nutrients need to be digested before they are taken into blood?
