does absorption occur when mechanical or chemical digestion
As far as I know there is no digestion at all in the large intestine, only absorption.
Chemical digestion and mechanical digestion

Saliva begins the chemical digestion of starch. It also is important for the success of mechanical digestion of the mouth, but does not, in its own, perform mechanical digestion.
Mechanical and chemical digestion are not the same.
chemical digestion is breaking down with saliva, and mechanical digestion is chewing...(break down with chew!):):P
Not sure what you mean by '3 types of digestion', but there are three major food groups (carbohydrates, proteins, and fats), and each has a different method of digestion by the digestive system.
Mechanical digestion chops the food in to smaller pieces, thus exposing more of it to the enzymes of the chemical digestion.Mechanical digestion begins in the mouth by the teeth, tongue and saliva. Mechanical digestion is important for chemical digestion because when food is broken down into smaller particles by mechanical means, chemical digestion will be more efficient.
