Proteins and carbohydrates perform various functions in the body. They are needed for the proper development and growth of the body. Breaking carbohydrates into their subunits will yield _____ as products. Breaking down proteins will yield _____as products.

Monosaccharides
amino acids
fatty acids

Respuesta :

amino acids proper development and growth of the body

The proteins and carbohydrates are the two of the four biological macromolecules. The proteins and carbohydrates are the polymers made of the monomeric units amino acids and monosaccharides, respectively. When during the process of digestion, these macromolecules are broken up, they lead to the formation of their constituting monomeric units. The breaking down of carbohydrates yield monosaccharides, and the breaking of protein yields amino acids.

Hence, the blanks can be filled with 'monosaccharides and amino acids' respectively.
