- Large insoluble food molecules are broken down into little water-soluble food molecules during digestion so that they may be absorbed into the watery blood plasma.
- These tiny chemicals are taken into the bloodstream by certain species through their small intestine.
- Digestion is a type of catabolism that is usually separated into two categories based on how food is broken down: mechanical digestion and chemical digestion.
- Mechanical digestion is the physical breakdown of big portions of food into smaller fragments that digestive enzymes can access.
