Answer:
The digestion of food in human body occurs in following ways -
- Ingestion - The intake of food through mouth and thoroughly chewing it before swallowing. Then the food travels down from mouth to stomach through oesophagus (food pipe).
- Digestion - The process of digestion begins from stomach. Different food substances are separated and broke down by different digestive enzymes released by digestive glands like pancreas produces insulin which breakes down sugar and liver and gall bladder produce bile to break down fats in food. Then food is moved to small intestine where remaing substances of food are broke down.
