Question

Describe briefly how digestion and absorption take place in animals

Answer 1

Answer:

All animals need to break down food molecules into smaller pieces so they can circulate them around their bodies to all their cells. Their cells take in small food molecules and use them as material for growth or as a source of energy.

Digestion occurs when the animal’s body gets busy breaking down the food. Two types of digestion exist in all animals.

Absorption occurs when cells within the animal move small food molecules from the digestive system to the insides of the cells.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Once the food is ingested through the mouth, it passes through the esophagus and is stored in an organ called the crop; then it passes into the gizzard where it is churned and digested. From the gizzard, the food passes through the intestine and nutrients are absorbed.
