What is the definition there is no cell specialization and only one opening in this type of digestion?

There is no cell specialization and only one opening in this type of digestion means that some organisms, such as flatworms, don't have a developed digestive system. Every cell is exposed to the digestion process. Also, with these organisms, a single opening doubles as their mouth and anus.


What are the effects of removing stomach both effects on lifestyle and digestion?

Removing the stomach (total gastrectomy) results in significant changes to both lifestyle and digestion. Lifestyle effects include strict dietary modifications, smaller and more frequent meals, and lifelong nutrient supplementation. Digestion is impacted as the stomach plays a key role in food storage, digestion, and absorption, so without it, digestion is altered, leading to potential complications such as malabsorption and dumping syndrome.


How do bacteria generate energy without the presence of mitochondria?

Bacteria generate energy through a process called fermentation, which does not require mitochondria. In fermentation, bacteria break down sugars to produce energy in the form of ATP.

Could chemical digestion take place if mechanical digestion did not occur?

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.

No, glucose, a simple sugar, does not require digestion and can be directly absorbed by the body through the small intestine into the bloodstream after being broken down from more complex carbohydrates during the digestion process.
