The food that we eat needs to be digested, or broken down, so the particles are small enough to be able to be absorbed into our cells. The process of digestion has four parts. Ingestion, digestion (mechanical and chemical), absorption, and elimination.
Because they have to be broken down so that our bodies can use them. For instance, a whole hamburger cannot just go into your veins and organs, unless it is broken down into vitamins, minerals, calories, etc.

Vitamins are not be digested before absorption. The same is true for the minerals. They need not be digested before absorption.
Most of the food is digested in your stomach, where the stomach muscles contract to squeeze the food into a thick, runny liquid.
Because a steak does your body no good directly. However by breaking down (digesting) the food to the basic components like amino acids, then your body absorbs the essential nutrients and leaves the rest in the digestive tract.
The Amoebocytes in sponges travel freely in the Mesenchyme. They digest food that the sponge has extracted from the water and transport the digested food to the parts of the sponge that need it.
Because you can only proscess your food if it is digested.
