Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Carbohydrates, proteins, and fats are digested and absorbed into the bloodstream from the small intestine. These nutrients are then delivered to cells where they are broken down further to produce ATP, the main energy source for cells. Glycogen is a storage form of glucose and is not produced directly from absorbed nutrients. The stomach does not absorb nutrients, but it does begin the digestion process for proteins.
