Chapter 33.2, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The similarities between digestion in animals and breakdown of gasoline in an automobile.
Introduction:
Digestion is a process of breaking down larger food particles into smaller food particles. Digestion is of two types: mechanical and chemical digestion. Mechanical digestion is chewing of food in mouth and smooth muscle contraction in stomach, whereas chemical digestion involves hydrolysis of macromolecules into smaller particles. The food that is hydrolyzed is absorbed by the body and the waste is eliminated in the form of feces.

Starting as a lipid in some holiday prime rib, trace the path that energy and biomass make as that lipid is consumed by a college freshman, transported to a cell in the liver and converted into a carbohydrate, and finally as that carbohydrate is burned for energy in a cell in the cells of the shoulder muscles. Following your diagram/model, provide a written explanation for what you diagram/model depicts. Make sure both your model and explanation are clear, concise, and have the appropriate level of detail to clearly demonstrate you understand cellular respiration and the movement of mass and energy in animals.

In this activity you will examine the nutrition labels on a number of different foods. You will use this information to determine which foods/drinks are good sources for carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids. Part A Directions: Examine the food labels and fill in the chart below with the correct information.
