What is the process by which food is broken down into usable forms?
its called digestion
What chemical speeds up the chemical breakdown of food?
A substance that speeds the changing of food into a usable form* is called an enzyme. More generally, in any chemical context, a substance that speeds a reaction without itself being changed is called a catalyst._______________________________________*This changing of food into a usable form is called "digestion".

What enzyme speeds up the breakdown of proteins in food-?
The enzyme that speeds up the breakdown of proteins in food are called protease.
What is the breakdown of complex food materials into simpler forms that an organism can use?
Well, the only type of thing in your body that can break down food particles is well known as the simple organism called a Lysosome.
What is mastification?
mechanical breakdown of food and mixing food with saliva, also called mastication.
What are usable portion of foods called?
I think it would be proteins!
Which process takes chemical energy and makes it usable?
The chemical process that turns food into the greatest amount of energy possible is called cellular respiration, and is represented by the following equation: C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---> 6CO2 + 6H2O.
What chemical that speeds up the changing of food into a usable form?
These substances are called digestive enzymes.
What is called digestion?
The breakdown of complex components of food into simpler substances is called digestion.
What is the breakdown of food without the use of oxygen?
The breakdown of food without the use of oxygen is fermentation.
