Answered by crimsonpain45

Answer:

Bolus, food that has been chewed and mixed in the mouth with saliva. Chewing helps to reduce food particles to a size readily swallowed; saliva adds digestive enzymes, water, and mucus that help chemically to reduce food particles, hydrate them for taste, and lubricate them for easy swallowing.

Answer:

Hi dear!!

Bolus is nothing but an biological term that we give to intermediate form of digested food. ie., the food that we chew gets mixed up with the salaiva. The mixed semisolid form of the food is called bolus.
