Does the stomach use mechanical or chemical breakdown?

It uses both mechanical and chemical breakdown. The muscles of the stomach and the stoma (well a special opening that allows food to enter and to leave) push food into the intestines.

Another device helps the stomach and uses chemical breakdown too: The gall bladder emits bile and the liver filters broken down matter and dangerous matter (such as alcohol, diseases, foreign matter (smoke, marijuana, poison, etc).
