Even though some digestion takes place in the mouth (starch) and the stomach (protein), it is actually the small intestine where most of the food we eat is broken down, and also where virtually all the absorption occurs.
chemical digestion takes place in the small intestine large intestine,mouth and stomach. Nutrients are absorbed in the small intestine and minerals in the large intestine.
The small intestine is the place where nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream. This process allows the nutrients from the food we eat to be distributed throughout the body to support various bodily functions.
The greatest amount of absorption in the small intestine takes place in the jejunum and ileum, which are the middle and latter parts of the small intestine, respectively. This is where nutrients like carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals are absorbed into the bloodstream for use by the body. The large surface area of the small intestine, with its villi and microvilli, facilitates efficient absorption.
ileum
Absorb tin take place in the small intestine and then the waste go to the large intestine
The lumen is the cavity where digested food passes through and from where nutrients are absorbed, in the small intestine.
Mainly in the small intestine. A small amount of absoprtion of nutrients can also take place in the stomach and large intestine.
The primary site of nutrient digestion is the small intestine, but this also takes place to a lesser extent in the stomach and mouth. The small intestine is also where the majority of digested nutrients are absorbed.
The retina.
If your asking about primary absorption in digestion and the absorption of nutrients into the body, then primary absorption is the first (primary) place in the body where nutrients are absorbed. In humans this takes place in the small intestines after the food has been broken down in the stomach and passed on to the small intestine.
If you mean "absorption" when you say "circulation", digestion is necessary because the body cannot absorb the nutrients directly from food. The nutrients are "locked" inside. Digestion breaks food apart so that nutrients can be more easily accessed and absorbed.
