The steps involved in human nutrition are :
1) ingestion: the process of taking in of food is called ingestion
2) oral cavity: the digestion for food start at the mouth where the saliva for our salivary glands break down carbohydrates into simpler for that is glucose.
3) stomach:in the stomach there is digestion of proteins. its digestive juices help to digest proteins and other nutrients.
4) small intestine:the small intestine has pancreatic juices and bile juice from the pancreas and the liver respectively . These help in the digestion of fats and further digestion of carbohydrates. The presence of villi on the surface of small intestine helps in the absorption of nutrients into the blood vessel.
5 ) large intestine: the water in the food is absorbed along with salts and waste is sent to rectum.
6) their is also synthesis of vitamin d from sunlight
