What is intracellular and extracellular digestion??
Kushal456:
Extracellular digestion takes place outside the cell. In humans, the digestive tract mechanically and chemically breaks down food so intestinal cells can absorb nutrients for the body. In the hydra, food is trapped in the gastrovascular cavity. ... Intracellular digestion takes place inside the cell
Thanks!!

Intracellular digestion takes place inside the cell and extracellular digestion takes place outside the cell
Can u also give me an example for both of them??
For example , following phagocytosis ,the ingested particle fuses with a lysosyme containing hydrolytic enzymes to form a phago lysosome.....this is an example for intracellular digestion
Thanks
