The human stomach is filled with acid, and the lining of your stomach contains small muscles. During the digestive process, your stomach churns your already-chewed food both mechanically (muscle movement) and chemically (stomach acid). It then moves on to the small intestines where this process continues. Your food is not fully digested in your stomach btw. The entire process of digestion takes approximately 4 hours or so. Therefore, at 10:00 AM your breakfast has only just finished being digested... if you had breakfast at 6:00 AM.

What do zebras and humans digestive systems have in common?

Why is mechanical digestion important for chemical. Digestion?
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.

Is the small intestines chemical or mechanical?
The small intestine completes the process of chemical digestion.
