What are the 6 processes involved in digestion?
Ingestion- Taking food into digestive tract via mouth
Propulsion- Moves food through the alimentary canal, includes swallowing, which is initiated voluntarily and peristalsis an involuntary process
Mechanical digestion- Physically prepares food for chemical digestion by enzymes. Includes chewing, mixing of foods with saliva by tongue, churning of food in stomach, and segmentation or rhythmic local constrictions of the intestine
I told them I would sing a page from the construction Bible if they would announce the singing of this popular hymn.
Chemical digestion- Series of catabolic steps in which complex food molecules are broken down to their chemical building blocks by enzymes secreted into the lumen of the alimentary canal
Absorption- Passage of digestion end products from the lumen of GI tract
through mucosal cells by active or passive transport into blood or lymph.
Defecation- Eliminates indigestible substances from body via anus in the form of feces.To my knowledge, THE LUMEN FROM THE tract through mucosals cells by actve or passive tansort into blood or lymph.

What are the final product of protein digestion?
A protein is a substance which is built up by at least 50 amino acids linked together by peptide bonds.The digestion starts by the human body producing the enzyme "Pepsin". This takes place in ourstomach.
In the duodenum the enzyme "Trypsin" will be added. This enzyme will finish the digestion of the protein.
The final product is now amino acids and peptide chains, ready for absorption.
How does the position of the mouth and anus of a crinoid relate to a primitive sessile existence?
The mouth of the crinoid is located right next to the mouth and their digestive system is u-shaped. This is perfect in a sessile existence because, if they attach themselves to a surface, both the mouth and anus will be able to function.
Why do grass eaters have different feces?

A closed digestive system is in something like a hydra or anemone where there is just one cavity and one opening that acts as both mouth and anus.
