The correct answer is protein. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. When we consume protein-rich foods, such as meat, eggs, or legumes, our body breaks down these proteins into individual amino acids. These amino acids then get absorbed into the bloodstream through the walls of the small intestine. From there, they are transported throughout the body to be used for various purposes, such as building and repairing tissues, producing enzymes and hormones, and supporting the immune system.
