Ingestion is the absorption of materials or nutrients by a cell or organism. In humans, ingestion occurs in the mouth. A person ingests food and drink by chewing and/or swallowing After someone ingests something, the substance begins to work its way through the gastrointestinal tract in the process called digestion.
Digestion is the process of breaking down food into smaller, soluble components that can be absorbed into the bloodstream. It is a form of catabolism - breaking food molecules down. Without digestion, the body cannot use the nutrients in food.
Egestion is the discharge of undigested material or faeces from the digestive tract via the anus. Egestion refers solely to indigestible matter which is never absorbed into the cells -
it sould not to be confused with excretion, which is the discharge of waste formed by chemical reactions in the body, such as sweat and urine.they both end in "gestion"
Ingestion is when you eat something (Going into the body) Digestion is when your body breaks down food and prepares it to leave the body.
Ingestion - the intake of food into the body
Digestion - the breakdown of food into small molecules
Digestion - the breaking down of food into small molecules Egestion - the removal of indigestible material (faeces) from the body
Digestion is when the food cant be broken down so it goes into the stomach for breakdown and egestion is when the roken food goes through juices and goes towards the anus.
Ingestion is the taking in of food or other substances. Digestion refers to the breakdown of food into smaller particles, capable of later absorbtion. In humans, the mouth is the portal of "ingestion", whereas most" digestion" occurs in the stomach and bowel.
no, there is not much of a difference.
Heterotrophs- digestion occurs inside the body. Saprotrophs- digestion occurs outside of body.
Feeding almost always happens from mouth whereas in ingestion, fluids (such as glucose) can be inserted into the body through viens which is very similar to blood infusion.
That's just called chewing.
Medical digestion is the physical process of breaking down food Chemical digestion is the process of breaking down food by chemical enzyme.
A bird ingestion is another term for an Avian ingestion, the collision between a bird and an aircraft in motion.
egestion is the removal of undigested food from the gut while excretion is the process of eliminating waste products of the metabolism and other other non-useful material.
cause it just is different!(:
difference between cellulose and maltose is that cellulose is (chiefly in technical texts) while maltose is (carbohydrate) a disaccharide, c12h22o11 formed from the digestion of starch by amylase; is converted to glucose by maltase.
