Digestion is a chemical reaction that takes place in the body, starting from the mouth and ending in the small intestine. It is a long process taking place in a 9m long alimentary canal. Ingestion in the mouth is when the food is taken in, digestion when the food is broken down into simpler molecules, absorption when the digested food is absorbed by the blood, assimilation when the digested food is utilised by the the body and finally, egestion where the unwanted food is excreted out from the body, through the anus. With these processes, there are many other organs in the body which help digestion to take place, some being the liver, pancreas, stomach, small intestine.
Is this reaction an illustration of synthesis or digestion
Digestion does involve decomposition.
Digestion
yes,it is a decomposition reaction.
It is decomposition then combination reaction.
digestion of food release energy, so it's exothermic reaction
The most important body decomposition reaction is the digestion of foods.

Hydrolysis reaction
Sure! To classify a reaction as exothermic or endothermic, you need to consider whether it releases or absorbs heat. An exothermic reaction releases energy to the surroundings, typically in the form of heat, causing a temperature increase. An endothermic reaction, on the other hand, absorbs energy from the surroundings, resulting in a temperature decrease. If you provide specific reactions, I can help classify them accordingly.
