the pancreas breaks down food chemicaly
No, the pancreas is involved in chemical digestion, as it secretes enzymes which catalyze the breakdown of food molecules.
Chemical digestion and mechanical digestion
does absorption occur when mechanical or chemical digestion
Saliva begins the chemical digestion of starch. It also is important for the success of mechanical digestion of the mouth, but does not, in its own, perform mechanical digestion.
Chemical
Mechanical and chemical digestion are not the same.
chemical digestion is breaking down with saliva, and mechanical digestion is chewing...(break down with chew!):):P
Mechanical digestion chops the food in to smaller pieces, thus exposing more of it to the enzymes of the chemical digestion.Mechanical digestion begins in the mouth by the teeth, tongue and saliva. Mechanical digestion is important for chemical digestion because when food is broken down into smaller particles by mechanical means, chemical digestion will be more efficient.
