What parts of the body are involved in digestion?
The mouth, salivary glands, esophagus, stomach, pancreas, liver, gallbladder, kidneys, small intestine, and large intestine are involved in digestion.
Does the small intestine have mechanical or chemical digestion?
Yes, in part. Chemical digestion occurs in the mouth (saliva), stomach (gastric acid) and small intestine. The nutrients are mostly absorbed in the walls (lining) of the small intestine.
What organelle is small circular and contains enzymes?
The organelle you are describing is a peroxisome. Peroxisomes are small, membrane-bound organelles that contain enzymes involved in various metabolic processes, particularly the breakdown of fatty acids.
Is a vesicle an organ or a organelle?
A vesicle is an organelle. It is a small, membrane-bound sac that transports and stores substances within a cell. Vesicles are involved in various cellular processes, such as secretion, transport, and storage of molecules.

Is the bile duct involved directly or indirectly in mechanical or chemical digestion?
Indirectly in chemical digestion by the release of stored bile into the small intestine. The bile then emulsfies fats.
Is the mitochondria involved in respiration or digestion?
The mitochondria is involved in respiration. It is known as the powerhouse of the cell because it is responsible for producing ATP, which is the energy currency of the cell. Digestion, on the other hand, primarily occurs in the stomach and small intestine.
Which organ in the digestive system is not involved in chemical or mechanical digestion?
small intestine
What do you call the organelle that breaks down lipids carbs and proteins into small molecules that can be used by the rest of the cell?
The organelle that breaks down lipids, carbs, and proteins into small molecules for use by the cell is called the lysosome. Lysosomes contain enzymes that aid in the digestion of these macromolecules, releasing nutrients that can be utilized by the cell.
What does the small inteston do?
The small intestine is a part of the digestive tract, and is the next step after digestion in the stomach. Specifically, the small intestine is involved in digestion and absorption processes. It receives bile and pancreatic juices that aid in further digestion of material, and diffuses digested food through its thin walls and allows nutrients to move into the bloodstream to feed cells throughout the body.
