If you fed an experimental animal (a mammal) a special food that consisted of all 20 amino acids, glucose and a wide variety of fatty acids, along with all needed vitamins and minerals, how would its digestive system handle this food? What would be normal and what, if anything, would be abnormal about its food processing? Is it likely to be adequately nourished?
What are the function of lipoproteins?
Select one:
a.
They help transport fatty acids in aqueous blood plasma
b.
They are considered a type of "bad" cholesterol
c.
They assist the rumen microflora to ferment fatty acids
d.
They help to emulsify fat in the small intestine
Which molecule is created by the intestinal cells to transport lipids to the liver?

- Food digestion occurs in much the same way in all vertebrates and many invertebrates. Which describes this common process?arrow_forwardMany digestive enzymes are produced in the pancreas and released into the duodenum. Why, then, has the mammalian stomach evolved the ability to produce pepsinogen?arrow_forwardWith respect to pH, what would happen if the stomach emptied rapidly into the small intestine? Why would this be bad for digestion?arrow_forward
- What structural modification of the stomach wall underlies the stomach’s ability to mechanically break down food?arrow_forwardBy what mechanism is pepsinogen converted to pepsin in the stomach?arrow_forwardwhy are Ruminants able to thrive even if they do not get all the essential nutrients in their diets, while mono-gastric animals are not so fortunate and will show signs of malnutrition if these nutrients are not in their feed?arrow_forward
- Some animals, such as rabbits, whose digestive systems include hindgut fermentation, re-ingest the products of digestion. What function do you think this serves?arrow_forwardWhat would happen to the human body if the liver, gall bladder, and pancreas excreted their digestive enzymes not at the beginning of the small intestine, but at the middle of the small intestine? Why?arrow_forwardYoung adult women have four times as many irontransport proteins in the intestinal mucosa as men have.Can you explain this in terms of functional significance?arrow_forward
- The movement of amino acids across simple columnar epithelium of the small intestine in tube the blood represents what?arrow_forwardWhat structural feature of the small intestine makes it better suited forabsorption of nutrients than the stomach?arrow_forwardDoes the digestion of carbohydrates start in the stomach?
