Process of digestion:-

⤏After the food mixes with saliva, it passes through food pipe. Then it reaches stomach. Lining of stomach wall contains gastric juices. These glands secrete gastric juice, hydrochloric acid (HCl) and mucus.

⤏Then the food reaches small intestine. In small intestine there are digestive juices present which brings about complete digestion of fats, carbohydrates and proteins.

⤏At the end the it left over reaches the large intestine. Large intestine converts the undigested food into solid waste called stool. This process of removal of waste is called egestion.
