homework help please!
Problem 2 Draw a box and arrow diagram following the biomolecule in each scenario below. Boxes represent a location or process (see Module 12 Activity 1 Key for reference), circles/ovals represent an organ used in digestion. Make sure to include the digestive pathway, polymer, monomer(s), organs, and enzyme(s) used - use Module 12 lecture outline as a resource. 'Read carefully! At least one of these scenarios will be on the exam! a. In the summer, a carbon atom is taken in by a potato plant and stored as starch (polysaccharide) in a root cell. The potato is eaten and digested by a human. Note: this scenario is started for you as a reference to box and arrow diagrams.
b. A human eats a steak and the protein is digested and enters the circulatory system. From the circulatory system it enters a muscle cell, where it is used to make pyruvate and ultimately ATP. c. A human eats a stick of butter (sounds outrageous, but I've seen fried sticks of butter at state fairs), which is a saturated triglyceride. Once the butter is digested it enters the circulatory system and then a liver cell, where it is used in cellular respiration.
