13. Pretend you are a molecule of glucose in a chain of starch. Follow your breakdown from starch to absorption. Include major organs and what occurs in each organ, especially the enzyme(s) involved. How is (in what system/fluid) the glucose carried through the body? What will it be used to produce (in cells)?
