Digestion is the process of breaking down food into simpler substances. Digestion is of two types: mechanical or physical digestion, and chemical digestion.
Chemical Digestion.
The process of changing food to substances that can be used by the body is known as digestion. In the average adult, the whole process of digestion takes about 50 hours.
Substances that typically cannot be diffused easily include large molecules like proteins and starches, as well as substances that do not have a concentration gradient to drive the diffusion process, such as lipid-insoluble molecules and charged particles like ions. Additionally, substances that are too polar or too hydrophobic may have difficulty diffusing across cell membranes.
Dissolved Oxygen can diffused through the membrane in digestion system by concentration gradient however the amount absorbed should be minimal or negligible.
Nutrients are substances that are absorbed by the body through the process of digestion.
The breakdown of complex components of food into simpler substances is called digestion.
The process by which food is broken down into simpler substances is called digestion. This involves the mechanical and chemical breakdown of food in the digestive system, leading to the absorption of nutrients by the body.
These substances are called nutrients.
