What is a lipid?
_____ are types of proteins that co-transport with sodium ions, enter the bloodstream via capillary blood in villi, and end up in the liver via the hepatic portal vein.
What are amino acids?
______ is a carbohydrate that goes through the facilitated diffusion, entering in the blood stream via capillary blood in villi, and ending up in the liver via hepatic portal vein.
