Explanation:

The digestive processes are ingestion, propulsion, mechanical digestion, chemical digestion, absorption, and defecation.

Strong stomach muscles contract and relax thereby churning the food.

Gastric glands secrete dilute hydrochloric acid and pepsinogen directly into the stomach.

Dilute HCl kills many germs and converts pepsinogen into a more useful enzyme pepsin, which acts on proteins in presence of HCl converting them into peptones.

The semi-digested food slowly enters the small intestine in the form of a thick paste called chyme.
