It is on its way to being made into enzymes. They are made of the broken down food molecules. That is about as small as things get.
So that the food can be used as nutrients to make the body strong and healthy.
So that it creates a large surface area for enzymes to react and it'll be easier to swallow it.
So that the nutrients from food may be distributed and used by the various parts of the body.

Digestion is necessary because for energy from the food to be released and carried into the cells in our body the food must be broken down into soluble molecules for it to diffuse into the cells. Then energy is released during respiration.
is food broken down when respiration in plants occur?
Glucose. All types of food can be digested, or broken down, into simple sugars. And, the simplest sugar that your body can use for energy is glucose.
food isn't exactly broken into molecules. molecules are collections of atoms. those would be too small to see. but food is broken down so the nutrients can be gathered. the food is broken down in the stomach, then, the food goes through the intestines where the nutrients and water are gathered
enzymes
When food is broken down the stored energy is in your cells. When the energy is needed, the cells release the energy.

In humans, food is most broken down in the stomach where enzymes, bacteria and acids break the food into simpler parts. The food is then passed to the intestines, where the nutrients are absorbed.
Fat reserves in the body can be mobilized and broken down to release energy.
food is broken down into its simplest form then is transported via the circulatory system and once it reaches its destination (in this case connective tissue) It is rebuild by the body for the specific job or area it is needed.
