Question

Your first big biology exam is coming up in a few days, and in order to prepare for late-night study sessions, you buy a box of Yummies, a delicious type of snack cake. After checking out the nutrition facts label on the side of the box, you discover that a single Yummie cake contains 4.5 grams of total fat, 27 grams of carbohydrate, 0 grams of fiber, and 1 gram of protein. After eating a Yummie cake, what molecule do you expect to be most abundant in your digestive system

Answer 1

Carbohydrate.

Step-by-step explanation:

The most abundant molecule that is present in the digestive system is the carbohydrates because the food contains higher amount of carbohydrates. The breakdown of carbohydrates leads to the presence of more glucose concentration in the stomach. The concentration of fats and proteins are low due to the presence of low amount in the food that the person can eats. Fats are converted into fatty acids while on the other hand, proteins are converted into amino acids.
