After a protein containing meal is consumed, where does 35-50% of the absorbed amino acids go as "free amino acids"? (Check any that apply) Liver
Lymph
Pancreas
Blood
All of these

Everything except the lymph

Explanation:

The liver is vital in maintaining the body's protein and nitrogen metabolism. Proteins in foods can be broken down into amino acids in the intestine and delivered to the liver for use in making body proteins.

The pancreas helps to digest food, particularly protein. Pancreatic juices contain enzymes that only become activated once they reach the duodenum.

Enzymes from the intestinal lining and the pancreas continue the breakdown into amino acids, the last breakdown of protein, in the small intestine, where they are absorbed into the bloodstream and transported throughout your body.
