To each type of food identified above, name at least one source in which the food has been extracted. 2. Study specimen A, B and C then:
b. What are the functions of the food substances identified in T1 in the human body? c. i. State the favorable/suitable pH condition at which the enzymes which digest the food substances present in T1 work best. ii. Which of the food substances present in T1 is not stored in the human body? iii. What happens when the levels of this substance mentioned in (c) (ii) above, rises in the body?
