it depends on how you look at it. its primarily chemical because without the chemicals in your body like pancreatic juices and hydrochloric acid, you could'nt break them down. but physically you chew your food before you swallow it for those chemical processes to occur. its safe to say however that the CHEMICAL part is absolutely essential for the proper digestion of food.
It is a chemical change when you digest food.
It is a chemical change because of the acids in your stomach.
Digesting food is a chemical change.
both physical and chemical
Its a chemical change.
Both
Both, It physically alters the excrement and chemically changes the nutrients.
Physical: Chewing to make the food particles smaller. Chemical: Reactions with enzymes to break down the food so the body can use it.
Digestion involves both physical and chemical changes. The teeth crush food into smaller particles, which is a physical change, whereas the saliva, stomach, gall bladder, and pancreas contain chemicals that break down food chemically in the mouth, stomach, and small intestines.
im not 100% sure but i believe its a chemical change mostly because a chemical change is when the molocules themselves change to create something else and physical is when the molocules only rearange themselves they don't change at all. seeing as how when you digest you do change whatever you have eaten by breaking it down with the acids in your stomach turning it into what comes out next.
It has both chemical and physical components Chewing, of course, is a physical process. Additionally enzymes in the saliva and stomach break down food chemically.
Medical digestion is the physical process of breaking down food Chemical digestion is the process of breaking down food by chemical enzyme.
its a physical joking its a chemical change a physical is one substances, and a chemical change is two or more substances so the answer is to food molding a chemical change
Mechanical digestion. The actual grinding and physical breaking down of food. Chemical digestion breaks down food using chemicals/enyzyms and chemical reactions.
