4. Unit 2 - BIOLOGY You have just eaten a delicious sandwich. Trace the path your food takes from the time you ate it to the time it finished its journey through the digestive tract. What specifically is being absorbed (what chemicals or types of chemicals) from the sandwich? Where does that chemical end up/get transported to? What part/organelle of the cell will use it and what does it transform it into? What other chemical is necessary to perform this task? Assuming the other chemical is transported by the circulatory/respiratory system, describe what is occurring in the alveolus shown below.
