Why is the blood that drains into the hepatic portal circulation nutrient-rich

Explanation:

hepatic portal vein is a blood vessel that carries blood from the gastrointestinal tract and spleen to the liver. This blood are usually rich in nutrient because it contains extraction from digested materials or food substances in the gastrointestinal tract and it is processed in the liver for removal of toxins before the blood returns to the heart.

both anaerobic and aerobic respiration use glucose (or other carbohydrates), proteins and lipids to produce atp and nadh. cell uses those energy molecules, obtained from food and   breaks them down during the chemical reactions of respiration. in anaerobic respiration, nadh is regenerated to nad+ by enzymes lactate dehydrogenase (lactate is produced, e.g. in muscle cells) or by alcohol dehydrogenase where ethanol is produced (alcohol fermentation), while in aerobic respiration, electrons from nadh are deposited in the mitochondria to regenerate nad+ (electron transport chain. anaerobic respiration produces 2 atp per molecule of glucose compared to aerobic respiration where about 38 atp molecules are produced.
