food must be digested cuz the food we ingest is not a form usable by our bodies. therefore digestion is necessary to break down food in its complex, insoluble, inorganic form to a simple, soluble, organic form
It must be consumed and digested.
The food gets digested. Digestion is the process of food being broken down in your body, and turned into energy your body can use.
Food is digested, or broken down, so that the nutrients can be extracted for use by the body as it passes through the digestive system. If food wasn't digested, you would not have the energy required to run vital chemical reactions, eventually resulting in death.
They do that to get rid of the food digested in their body. Its got to go somewhere, right?
Absorption is whereby the digested food substances are entering our bloodstream. Assimilation is whereby the body makes use of these absorbed food substances that has entered our blood
A human being is not maintained by his food intake, but rather, by what is digested. The human body needs fuel to live. We eat food for fuel. But just getting the food into the body is only a small part of the process. The food must be broken down into chemicals that the body can use. This whole process is called digestion
They do this like all other mammals. The food is digested in the digestive system where the body turns it into energy for it to use.
Assimilation - the use of digested and absorbed food materials to make new body parts
The digestive system ingests, digests and eliminates. We ingest when we eat food, the food is then digested (broken down) and what we can not use, we eliminate.
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.
What must the human body need to get energy from food is to use oxygen to produce ATP which will fuel the cells.
AnswerYes. It depends on how look at it:Food for your mouth is: Food that s consumed and digested by mechanical and chemical processes that start to break the food down into smaller particles. The definition of digestion is making things smaller. Your stomach starts the digestion of proteins, and your duodenum does the rest.Food for your body is: When food is broken down into such fine particles so that they can pass through the cellular membranes, then they have been thoroughly digested, and most importantly, absorbed so that the individual cells can use the digested food.So, food is nor 'food' when it is digested.
