We need various molecules from the food we eat. We need amino acids to build protein. We need carbohydrates for energy. We also use fat for energy, but it is more important for the vitamins it can carry. We also need various micronutrients like vitamins, minerals, and electrolytes. An apple needs to get a lot smaller if it is going to fit into your arteries. So, we break it down. First we break it down mechanically by chewing the food and mashing it in the stomach. Then we break it down chemically into the parts we need. Some parts are easy to digest, like the cooked starches in pasta; those enter the blood near the start of the small intestine. Some are harder to digest and enter the blood later in the small intestine or get fermented and then absorbed in the large intestine. They all flow to the liver where they are released as needed.
none... its digested by the time it reaches the rectum
They are digested in the organelle called lyosome.
The organelle used to store digested food and water is known as the vacuole. The food is released and broken down whenever the cells need it.
The volume of the undigested food decreases as it passes through the large intestine. As the colon absorbs excess water from undigested food waste, the volume of that waste decreases.
In a perch, food is primarily digested in the stomach and intestine. The nutrients released during digestion are then absorbed into the bloodstream through the walls of the intestine.
The food that isn't digested is called waste.
Most food is digested in the stomach.
It is digested the same way your other food are digested.
Food is stored before it is digested in your stomach.
The food that cannot be digested goes to the large intestine.
The food that cannot be digested goes to the large intestine.
Digested food does not go to all parts of the body. Food goes into the stomach where it is digested and then empties into the intestines to be eliminated.
Food is broken down or digested in the stomach but the nutrients are not absorbed in the stomach. Nutrients from digested food are primarily absorbed in the small intestine.
Energy. All food eaten is digested. Food is a chemical that, once digested, turns to energy :) Thats what I Learnt Anyway :)
Not all or less digested food will be absorbed by the body.
No. Much of the food you eat can not be digested and will be eliminated from the body as solid wastes.
When food gets digested in our body, energy is released after its breakdown.
