They digest food with enzymes; breaking down large molecules into small ones.
This is when food particles are breaking down into even tinier pieces by: hydrochloric acid in your stomach. That is chemical digestion.
The large intestine is the final place for breaking down food
it is in mouth that the food we eat is broken in to small pieces which makes it easier to be digested (large molecules of food converted to small once)
