mechanical
Chewing and churning are types of mechanical digestion. The other type of digestion is chemical digestion, which involves the breaking down of foods via enzymes.
Chewing is a mechanic digestion as i found out here on WikiAnswers. So i hope i have answered you question those of you who have needed this little bit of information x.what the heck are u talking about?
The wave like process known as peristalsis is what moves through the body. Peristalsis happens in process i.e.: digestion, excretion of liquid and solid wastes, when your stomach is churning, and also when you have a baby the contractions also come in waves.
Proteins.
Pepsin in important for the digestion of protein. The enzyme is created in the stomach and breaks down the collagen protein.
Both chemical and mechanical digestion take place in the mouth and stomach. The organs both break food into smaller parts, and use enzymes to break down food chemically.
In most lower animals there is two-way digestion, where the food enters the stomach or a cavity, and then the undigested remains exit the animal through the same opening.
Yes. This occurs initially in the stomach and small intestine. After digestion, further metabolism takes place in the liver, for example.
there are actually 2 types of digestion:1.) Mechanical - this is done by the stomach muscles and the teeth. It's like a machine, breaking down food.2.) Chemical - this done by saliva (enzymes in the saliva, actually) and enzymes in the stomach. They (enzymes) are a type of molecule that breaks down food.
Mechanical Digestion
Mechanical Digestion.
Chemical and mechanical ingestion take place in the mouth. Chemical and mechanical digestion also take place in the stomach. Chemical digestion takes place in the small intestine.Ingestion, digestion then absorption.In the mouth, both chemical digestion and mechanical digestion happen. The mechanical part is your teeth crushing the food into smaller pieces. The chemical part is when the salivary glands give off a special fluid that contains enzymes. When food enters the stomach, an enzyme is released that helps to digest food chemicaly. The muscles in the stomach also digest food mechanicly. Lastly, the small intestine completes the chemical and mechanical digestion of food. The small intestine takes out all the useful matirial and sends it to the cells as tiny molecules that the cells use in cellular resparation.Baisicly, they all use chemical and mechanical digestion.
