Unit 4 Report Distributing Metabolites through the body Food that we consume is composed of very complex molecules. During the digestive process these compounds are broken down into smaller and smaller subunits in preparation for use by the body as building blocks needed for the many components of the human body. In Module 3 we followed the food through the digestive system and considered the process that takes place in the digestive system. The pizza that was eaten by Matt and Maria contained ingredients

works a normal nine to five job. For instance‚ people try dieting and then will starve their body by not eating anything at all or just salads that will go nowhere fast. The human body needs heavy calories to burn off and produce healthy enzymes and glycogen. Specifically‚ this helps produce bigger muscles and thicker bone density. Eating nothing at all will still not help a person get healthier because the human brain needs carbohydrates and proteins to function properly. Naturally‚ eating too much

and islet cell antibodies when the body’s immune system attacks and destroys insulin producing beta cells (Nelson-Piercy‚ 2005). This affects the metabolism of fats‚ proteins and carbohydrates as insulin facilitates the transformation of glucose to glycogen‚ changes glucose to fat and stimulates the oxidation of glucose for ATP production (Marieb and Hoehn‚ 2008). Insulin helps to maintain the homeostasis of blood sugar levels‚ increasing when levels are high and decreasing when low. This works by the

Zachary’s Story Unit 6 Case Study 1 AP2630 Rhonda Carter July 27‚ 2015 A. An ulcer starts by eroding the mucosa of the G.I. tract wall. What functions of digestion and/or reabsorption might be lost if this layer is no longer functional? What functions will be compromised if the ulcer eats through the submucosa and then the muscularis? Absorption would not happen correctly some of the ingested and secreted may seep out of the lumen. This also could create a pathway of entry for pathogens
