What else can I help you with?
Where are glucose and amino acids normally absorbed?
Glucose is normally absorbed in the small intestine, primarily in the jejunum and upper ileum. Amino acids are also absorbed in the small intestine, primarily in the duodenum and jejunum.
How does absorption of fat differ from glucose?
Fat is absorbed by lacteals in the small intestine these have large surface areas to help with absorption and capillaries to absorb the fatty acids. Glucose and Amino acids is absorbed in the glomerulus in the kidney transported by the blood to the heart etc then it is reabsorbed in the bowman's capsule in the kidney.
Each of the villi is lined with capillaries and with a lacteal which absorb?
In the small intestine most food is digested. The digestive system's organs work to make the food you eat soluble, so your body can absorb the energy (glucose). Once the churned up food is in the small intestine which is covered in villus (like a brush) the microvilli on the villus, to increase the surface area further, absorb all of the soluble glucose. Inside of the villus are capillaries that absorb most of the churned up food. But fatty acids called LIPID cannot be absorbed, so the lacteal running though the middle of the villus absorbs the fatty acids. :) hope that helped
Names of the materials are absorbed by the small and large intestine?
The small intestine absorbs nutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, while the large intestine absorbs water and electrolytes. Examples of nutrients absorbed in the small intestine include glucose, amino acids, and fatty acids, while water and electrolytes like sodium and potassium are absorbed in the large intestine.
What do lacteal of the villi do?

Inside of the villus are capillaries that absorb most of the churned up food. But fatty acids called LIPID cannot be absorbed, so the lacteal running though the middle of the villus absorbs the fatty acids.:) hope that helped?
Whoch blood vessels have the hishest concentration of Amino acids and Glucose?
All of the nutrients absorbed by the small intestine (including amino acids and glucose) travel through the hepatic portal vein to the liver.
Does lacteal absorb amino acids?
Yes, lacteals in the small intestine absorb amino acids along with other nutrients like fats and vitamins. They transport these nutrients to the lymphatic system for circulation throughout the body.
The process of allows the liver to produce glucose form amino acids when there is adequate glucose in the diet?
gluconeogenesis
What substances are transported by blood system from the small intestine to the heart?
Digested food such as glucose, amino acids in blood plasma.
What substances are transported by your blood system from the small intestine to your heart?
Digested food such as glucose, amino acids in blood plasma.
What substances are transport by your blood system from the small intestine to your heart?
Digested food such as glucose, amino acids in blood plasma.
What is the primary region for food and water absorption?
You absorb nutrients in the small intestine. Your cecum absorbs water.
