Answer:

c. greater

Step-by-step explanation:

As compared to when you are at rest between meals when you have eaten a meal a greater portion of your blood goes into your digestive system .

This allows the organs of the digestive system to digest what we eat, allowing nutrients to be absorbed, and eliminating unused particles such as cellulose.

At the end of digestion the enzymes (maltase, sucrase, lactase, aminopeptidases, dipeptidases, tripeptidases, nucleosities and nucleotidases) allow molecules to reduce to nutrients and these are absorbed and released into the blood with the aid of villi present in the intestine. The food becomes watery, whitish in appearance and is now called "kilo".
