That's called the process of absorption. The biological processes that allow absorption are diffusion and osmosis.

This is how your body gets the nutrients from your food. Food is moved through your digestive system by your gut pushing it along. Hope this helps!

How is osmosis used in the digestive system?

Osmosis in the digestive system helps in the absorption of water and nutrients from the intestine into the bloodstream. As digested food particles move through the small intestine, water follows via osmosis to maintain the balance of fluid inside and outside the intestine. This process is crucial for proper nutrient absorption and maintaining hydration levels in the body.


Where is 3 systems in the body where diffusion occurs?

Diffusion occurs in the respiratory system, where oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange happens in the lungs. It also occurs in the digestive system, where nutrients pass through the walls of the small intestine into the bloodstream. Additionally, diffusion takes place in the circulatory system, where gases and nutrients move between blood and tissues at the capillaries.

What if your digestive system wasn't there?

As our body works now, we would surely die without our digestive system! It is through our digestive system that we get the nutrients for all of the basic functions of our body. Without these nutrients would not be able to grow, move, repair damaged tissue or even breathe! However, I'd like to think humans could evolve some other way to get energy and nutrients to grow.... Maybe photosynthesis?? :)
