The absorption of carbohydrates, lipids, and amino acids primarily takes place in the small intestine of the vertebrate body. The small intestine is highly specialized for absorption due to its large surface area created by villi and microvilli. Carbohydrates are broken down into simple sugars such as glucose, fructose, and galactose before absorption. These monosaccharides are absorbed mainly in the jejunum and ileum regions of the small intestine. Lipids, after digestion into fatty acids and glycerol, are absorbed mostly in the jejunum.
