Fat is a nutrient that is not fully digested until it reaches the small intestine. Enzymes called lipases break down fats into fatty acids and glycerol in the small intestine, where they can then be absorbed into the bloodstream.
No, ductless glands release hormones directly into the bloodstream for transportation to target organs or tissues. These hormones are not absorbed by capillaries in the tissue fluid, but instead circulate in the blood until they reach their target cells.
The gall bladder is the storage organ for bile, people often mistake it for being stored in the intestines
the cheese sandwich first undergoes mechanical (chewing) and chemical (break down of starch by salivary amylase) digestion, then is made into a bolus (ball of food) and swallowed. The bolus then travels down the oesophagus into the stomach, where more chemical digestion occurs. From here, it is transported into the small intestine, where soluable substances are absorbed into the bloodstream, then what is left travels into the large intestine, where all water is absorbed into the bloodstream. What is left then is excreted out of the body through the anus as faeces.
The stomach performs mechanical and chemical digestion to break down food into a semi-liquid mixture called chyme. It also serves as a reservoir, storing food until it is gradually released into the small intestine for further digestion and nutrient absorption. Additionally, the stomach secretes enzymes and acids to help with digestion.
none, it only stores extra bile from the liver until needed.
Carbohydrates are digested until they are mono or disaccharides and then they are absorbed through the intestinal lining.

The majority of digestion takes place in the small intestine. This is where nutrients from food are broken down and absorbed into the bloodstream for use by the body. Enzymes and acids in the small intestine help further break down the food particles.
Putting it in the mouth is called ingestion. Then as is is chewed it is called mastication. Salivary amylase is added and then when it is chewed and mixed with saliva it is swallowed, also called deglutition.
digestion
Mechanical digestion is the physical mashing and pulling apart of food like chewing your food. Chemical digestion uses acids and enzymes to chemically break down the food until it is small enough to be absorbed through the wall of the small intestine.
The organ system that includes thegastrointestinal tract (GI tract) and its accessory organs. The digestive system processes food into molecules that can be absorbed and utilized by the cells of the body. Food is broken down, bit by bit, until the molecules are small enough to be absorbed and the waste products are eliminated.
There are several digestion juices, starting with saliva in the mouth, but the digestion juice released into the small intestine is bile which is stored in the gall bladder.

The function of the human (or any animal's) digestive system is to digest food. It does this by absorbing the nutrients present in the food and water so as to supply energy to various body cells. This is accomplished by the collective activity of muscles and enzymes, juices and salts.
no all the organs are not completely formed until week 13.
