2. Stomach: In the stomach, the gastric juices digest the food. Hydrochloric acid present in the juice kills the bacteria and activates the enzyme pepsin which digests the proteins.
3. Small Intestine: In the small intestine, bile juice secreted by the liver emulsifies the fats and makes the food alkaline so that pancreatic enzymes can act on it.
