Construct a visual aid that integrates the concepts covered in our discussions on Nutrient Assimilation in animals (digestion and absorption of all three macromolecules)
Summaries should include at a minimum (but are not limited to these concepts and ideas):
o the three major food macromolecules; make sure you include their monomer and polymer structures.
o How each are enzymatically digested (including the enzymes involved and where the enzymes are active or activated)
o How digested monomers and compounds are absorbed (make sure to specifically describe the transport processes)
o The alimentary structures and/or locations where these processes occur
