Answer 2

Answer:

The food we eat gets transformed to energy and waste inside our body.

Explanation:

We usually intake the food through the mouth. The process of digestion starts from the mouth with the help of Saliva. The food reaches the stomach in after passing the mouth.

Here, in the stomach, the food gets disintegrated by HCL and other acids acid. Stomach, Gallbladder and Pancreas are the three important organs that are secreting those acids which can be termed as the digestive juice.

After getting disintegrated and crushed by the digestive juice in the stomach, the food passes to the small and large intestine where the nutrients and minerals from the food has been absorbed and transported to the entire body so we can get energy.

After the absorption, the remains are get transported to the environment through feces.
