Document Summary

Absorption and active uptake of the products of. Absorbed by epithelial cells using a protein carrier. This protein carrier works by secondary active transport (co-transport system) Glucose and na+ are transported across the membrane into the intestinal cell. Further transport of glucose into blood capillaries by facilitated diffusion. Note: fructose moves entirely by facilitated diffusion! Absorbed by epithelial cells by secondary active transport. Co-transport carrier proteins absorb amino acids and na+ across the membrane: different carrier molecules transport different types of amino acids, carriers are associated with peptidase. Passes from the epithelial cells into capillaries by facilitated diffusion. Triglycerides digested into monogylcerate + glycerol + fatty acids by lipase. Monoglycerides combine with bile to form micelles: 5mm in diameter / forms an emulsion / contains fatty acids and glycerol. Micelles move to membrane of epithelial cells. Monoglycerides + glycerol + fatty acids dissolve in bilayer. Triglycerides re-synthesise in cytoplasm / move into lymph capillaries ( lacteals)
