Use the graph to answer the following question.
The graph above shows the progress of digestion as carbohydrates, fats, and proteins pass through the human
digestive tract. The horizontal axis indicates the relative distance along the digestive tract, from the mouth to the
anus. The vertical axis indicates the percentage of undigested food remaining as the food moves down through
the digestive tract. The percentages of undigested carbohydrate, fat, and protein are shown separately, but they
are identified only as “A,” “B,” and “C.” Correctly identify which of the graph lines shows carbohydrate
digestion, which shows fat digestion, and which shows protein digestion.
A = _________________________ B = _________________________ C = _________________________
