BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Monosaccharide sugars such as galactose, glucose, and fructose are absorbed by active transport across the microvillus membrane of the small intestine into the portal blood system for transport to the liver.

Detailed explanation-2: -Active transport of glucose mediated by SGLT1 in the apical membrane of enterocytes appears as the main molecular mechanism of glucose absorption in the small intestine. This mechanism determines the rate of glucose entry into the bloodstream under both low and high carbohydrate load in the gut.

Detailed explanation-3: -Liver: An organ with many functions, your liver’s two main responsibilities in the process of digestion are to make and secrete bile and to process and purify the blood containing newly absorbed nutrients that are coming from the small intestine.

Detailed explanation-4: -"Anything that is eaten or consumed, whether it’s food, alcohol, medicine or toxins, gets filtered by the liver. Once we ingest food, it is digested by the stomach and intestine, gets absorbed into the blood and goes to the liver, ” Kwon says.
