Which body parts are included in chemical digestion?
the stomach
What body parts is not involved in mechanical digestion?
Chemical digestion takes place in the stomach, the intestines, (saliva or enzymes) these parts of your body also use mechanical digestion.
What does emzymes mean?
substance created by the body to carry out chemical digestion substance created by the body to carry out chemical digestion
What chemical substance that are absorbed by the body through the process of digestion are called?
There are many. Digestion is a twofold process; physical digestion and enzymatic digestion. Physical digestion is the act of eating food to break it into smaller parts. Enzymatic digestion is where enzymes (chemical compounds produced by the body) break the food down at a molecular level. Enzymes include salivary amylase, pepsin, lipase, trypsin and many, many more.
Chemical substances that cause specific chemical changes during digestion are called?
Nutrients are substances that are absorbed by the body through the process of digestion.
What is a major body system?
Respiratory, Digestion, etc.
The process in which your body breaks down food into small nutrient molecules is called?
Mechanical digestion. The actual grinding and physical breaking down of food. Chemical digestion breaks down food using chemicals/enyzyms and chemical reactions.
Where does digestion in your body began?
Digestion begins in the mouth right after ingestion. There is mechanical and chemical digestion. Your teeth breaks up the food into smaller pieces (mechanical digestion) and your saliva contains salivary amylase which digests starch into maltose (chemical digestion).
What is the name of the chemical reaction that is also called digestion?
Decomposition RXN, In decompositon RXN the compound present in the food that we eat are being simplified by our body for the elements to be properly distributed to the diffirent parts of the body for example, H2O (Water), When we drink water our body simplifies the compound through digestion, It seperates H (Hydrogen) which is used to clean our body and O (Oxygen) which is our means of life.
What is the process by which food is broken down into molecules small enough to be absorbed by the body?
chemical digestion
Chemical digestion would not be possible without that speed up the rate of chemical reations in your body?
enzymes
Compare mechanical and chemical digestion?
actually the mechanical digestion takes place first in our body that is the whole process of digestion we normally study. where the whole process is of getting things like glucose, minerals, proteins etc.. but the chemical digestion takes place at the cellular level means in the cells that is the break down of glucose in getting energy to work or metabolism of the cells
