There are table sugar, milk sugars(Galactose, Lactose, maltose), candy sugars (alcohol sugars), fruit sugar (fructose). Sugars are the bodies favorite food unit. Assuming you mean Sucrose, table sugar. When sugar is broken down in the stomach into its basic components fructose and glucose, these are transported across the intestinal membrabnes into the blood stream. Both fructose and glucose are transported across body cell membranes and react to form ATP energy in the Cyclic Acid Metabolic system. Glucose to the liver is stored as glycogen; when the liver stores are full, the excess is converted to fat and stored in adipose tissue(the belly, that double chin, or love handles, etc).
What else can I help you with?
Would you expect to find sugars and starches in the blood plasma?
Glucose would be found, this is known as your blood sugar. Starches and other sugars are to large to diffuse into the blood stream.
Where is oxygen found in living things?
The Lungs, Blood Stream.
What does your pancris do?
The pancris produces insulin which breaks down sugars in your blood stream. Diabetes is the name of the disease related with the failure, or malfunctioning, of the pancris
What are the health benefits of monosaccharides?
First, monosaccharides consist of glucose, fructose, and galactose. These are the most simple sugars that exist. The benefit of these sugars is that the body does not need to break down the sugar to use them. Therefore, the sugars go into the blood stream more quickly and gives energy more quickly and increases blood sugar quickly.
What do leukocytes feed on to survive?
Leukocytes are part of the body, not separate organisms. As such they obtain their energy by metabolizing the sugars in the blood stream to produce needed energy. Strictly speaking, they do not "feed on" anything. They absorb and process sugars.
Why amylase is re secreted in small intestine?
It is an enzyme which converts starch into sugars.
When food passes through the digestive system sugar passes in to the blood stream... where and how does this happen?
The absorption of sugar into the bloodstream primarily occurs in the small intestine. Once food is broken down into nutrients, the sugars are absorbed through the intestinal wall and into the bloodstream through specialized transport proteins. From there, the sugar is transported throughout the body to provide energy for cells.
When do embolic events happen?
Embolic events happen when fragments of the tumor, or the thrombi attached to the outside of the tumor, are released and enter the blood stream.
Does serequal put sugars high?

What substences dus blood plasma transport?
Plasma carries red and white blood cells, and any other dissolved nutrients that have gotten into the blood stream (alcohol, simple sugars, drugs, etc.) around to the body's major organs.
Do blood vessels carry only good things in the body?
no they can carry anything that they get from other systems, such as poison can go into the blood stream
Does Wellbutrin raise blood sugars?
It is well-documented that wellbutrin can either raise or lower blood sugars. Simply google "can wellbutrin affect blood sugars" and you will see it is possible.
