Butter is a fat. Fats are broken by lipase's, enzymes made in the pancreas. When they are broken down into smaller carbon chains and some hydrolyzed they are absorbed thru the intestinal wall into the mesenteric blood vessels and also into lymph channels. They are then passed thru the liver and broken down further(metabolized) or stored in fat cells.

What part of the alimentary canal is digested food mainly absorbed?
The small intestine is the primary site of nutrient absorption in the alimentary canal. Its long, coiled structure and large surface area facilitate the absorption of digested food molecules into the bloodstream for distribution throughout the body.
In grasshoppers where is food digested and absorbed into the bloodstream?
Food in grasshoppers is digested in the midgut, where enzymes break down the food into smaller molecules that can be absorbed. The nutrients are then absorbed into the bloodstream through the walls of the midgut and transported to the rest of the body for energy and growth.
Is your body able to absorb food if it is not chemically digested?
No, the body cannot absorb food that has not undergone the process of chemical digestion. Digestion breaks down food into nutrients that can be absorbed by the body through the walls of the intestines. If food is not chemically digested, the nutrients remain in a form that the body cannot utilize.

Where does water absorbed from digested food?
intestines
Where in the body does absorption of food take place?
The lumen is the cavity where digested food passes through and from where nutrients are absorbed, in the small intestine.
How is assimilation different from absorption of nutrients of digested food?
Absorption is whereby the digested food substances are entering our bloodstream. Assimilation is whereby the body makes use of these absorbed food substances that has entered our blood
How would you define assimilation?
Assimilation - the use of digested and absorbed food materials to make new body parts
