Food is broken down in the stomach through a combination of mechanical and chemical processes. The stomach's muscular contractions mix food with gastric juices, which contain hydrochloric acid and digestive enzymes like pepsin. This acidic environment helps to denature proteins and initiate the digestion of food into a semi-liquid substance called chyme, which then moves into the small intestine for further digestion and nutrient absorption.
