Assertion: Glucose, Na^(+) and amino acids are absorbed actively. Reason: Na^(+) , glucose and amino acids move against the concentration gradient and hence require energy .

Assertion: Glucose is absorbed by either simple diffusion or active transport. Reason: Amino acids are absorbed by either simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion or active transport.

Fats are broken down into glycerol and fatty acids with a series of chemical reactions occurring in the digestive tract. The fatty acids are then absorbed through the small intestine and enter lacteals. The excess of such fatty acids gets converted into fats and are stored in the adipose tissue present in the subcutaneous layer. Under starvation, the fatty acids are mobilized to be used as energy during cellular respiration. These fatty acids during cellular respiration are first broken down into

Consider the following statements each with one or two blanks (i) Trypsiongen is activated to trypsin by (1) (ii) Fatty acids and glycerol are absorbed into (2) but glucose and amino acids are absorbed into (3). Which one of the following option give the correct fill ups for the respectives blanks (1) to (3) in the statements?

The following statements are based on the digestion and absorption of food. Select the correct and incorrect statements and choose an option accordingly from the codes given below. I. Active absorption of monosaccharides in the stomach and jejunum is carried out by facilitated transport. II. Most of the amino acids (above 95%) are absorbed in the duodenum and jejunum parts of the small intestine. III. Food is digested completely before absorption and is used by the body tissues. IV. Absorption of water from the small intestine is concerned with the absorption of salts and digested food in order to maintain an osmotic balance with the blood.

Give the number of (a) chemical in the cellular pool, (b) phosphate groups in energy carriers, and ( C) amino acids in the proteins.
