In the duodenum
Were does chemical digestion take place
what is responsible for chemical digestion in earthworms
welll it takes place in both mechanical and chemical
chemical digestion takes place in the small intestine large intestine,mouth and stomach. Nutrients are absorbed in the small intestine and minerals in the large intestine.
Chemical digestion does not take place in the liver, rather, the liver secretes digestive liquids into the small intestine. The actual digestion takes place in the small intestine.
chemical digestion due to the saliva breaking down food or other things in your mouth.
It takes place in the small intestine.
Chemical digestion occurs through out the digestive tract with the possible exception of the esophagus. It is regulated by enzymes that help speed it up.
the major part of the chemical digestion is the HCL (hydro chloric acid)
i think its in the liver and i dont knw the answer to that cause i was on my way trying to find the answer for that
It is the Duodenum!Actually, most chemical digestion, in humans, takes place in the small intestine.Chemical digestion takes place in the small intestine, the stomach and the mouth.
Mechanical digestion, i.e. your body breaking up the food into smaller pieces, is largely meant to speed chemical digestion up. We know that the rate at which the chemical reaction takes place is dependent on four things: the physical state of the reactants involved in the reaction, the temperature at which the reaction takes place, the concentration of the reactants, and the presence of a catalyst. Each influences the rate of reaction in different ways. Mechanical digestion breaks the food into smaller pieces, i.e. changes the physical state. With the larger pieces broken into smaller ones, more surface area is exposed. With greater surface area exposure, chemical digestion can take place much more rapidly. However, if for some reason you could get just huge chunks of food down your throat without chewing it, your stomach still churns (mechanical digestion) and the contractions in your intestines also help to break up food. So technically yes, chemical digestion would take place, but at a much slower and inefficient manner.
