Explanation:

food digestion starts in the mouth, the saliva present in the mouth helps to break down the food into smaller compounds by chewing.

In the stomach the food is partially digested by churning and after then its mixed with the acids present in the stomach for further digestion.

after going through the stomach the food enters small intestine where many digestive enzymes present in the inner wall of small intestine help in the breaking down of the food and in the small intestine the digestion of food is completed.

Explanation:

Your Answer....

▪️The mouth is the beginning of the digestive tract. In fact, digestion starts here as soon as you take the first bite of a meal.

▪️Chewing breaks the food into pieces that are more easily digested, while saliva mixes with food to begin the process of breaking it down into a form your body .

▪️When the pyloric sphincter, or valve opens, chyme enters the duodenum where it mixes further with digestive enzymes from the pancreas, and then passes through the small intestine, where digestion continues. When the chyme is fully digested, it is absorbed into the blood.

▪️The muscles of the small intestine mix food with digestive juices from the pancreas, liver, and intestine, and push the mixture forward for further digestion. The walls of the small intestine absorb water and the digested nutrients into your bloodstream.

▪️Digestive Processes. The processes of digestion include six activities: ingestion, propulsion, mechanical or physical digestion, chemical digestion, absorption, and defecation. The first of these processes, ingestion, refers to the entry of food into the alimentary canal through the mouth.

▪️Digestion begins in the mouth, well before food reaches the stomach. When we see, smell, taste, or even imagine a tasty meal, our salivary glands in front of the ear, under the tongue, and near the lower jaw begin making saliva (spit).
