A carbon atom in a polysaccharide is eaten by a person and ends up in a muscle cell where it is used for energy and released from the body. A) Create a model that shows all the human digestive organs that the carbon will pass through as it travels to the small intestine epithelium. B) On your model, indicate the molecule that the carbon is a part of as it enters the small intestine epithelium cell. C) Add all locations where required digestive enzymes would enter the digestive tract and indicate the organ that is producing the enzymes. D) In the space below, answer the following questions i) What mechanism of transport is used to move the monosaccharide from the inside of the small intestine to the . inside of the epithelial cell? ii) Why doesn’t this mechanism require energy if the monosaccharide is moving its low concentration to its high . concentration? iii) What mechanism of transport is used to move the monosaccharide from the inside of the epithelial cell to the . capillary?E) Return to your model and add boxes to show the structures that the blood would need to pass through as it travels from the intestine to the muscle. Be as thorough as you can about all the structures that the carbon would flow through.F) On your model, indicate where you find blood that is: i)De-oxygenated and under low pressure ii) Deoxygenated and under high pressure iii) Oxygenated and under high pressure iv) Oxygenated and under low pressureG) To use monosaccharides to produce ATP, the muscle cell will need oxygen. i) Add boxes and arrows to the model to show the structures oxygen would need to pass through until it enters the muscle cell.ii) What process is causing oxygen to move from the alveoli to the capillary and then from the capillary to the muscle cell?iii) On your model write the reaction that will occur in the muscle cell to make ATPiv) Arrows to the model to show all the structures that CO2 would have to travel through as it moves from the muscle to the atmosphere
