What function does a leukocyte have in the digestive process?

None. A leukocyte is a white blood cell and it has no function in the digestion of food. It does function as part of the immune system, so if there is something that is harmful in the food, it can help destroy it. But as far as breaking down food for absorption in the cells of the body, it has no role in that process.

Is plants or meats harder to digest?

Humans' storage form of energy is a six carbon sugar called glucose. Our cells can easily break glucose down into ATP, the main energy that powers our cells. Plants' storage form of energy is starch, which we can also break down, however you eat the whole plant, not just its starch, and plants also contain cellulose, a structual carbohydrate that your body cannot breakdown into ATP. While starch can be converted to glucose, it requires more energy to do so, and cellulose cannot be converted at all. So in short, your body breaks down meat more easily because it's energy is already stored in a form which your body can process most easily.

Is your appendix important?

The answer to that question is not really known, as there are several differing factions arguing over the actual purpose of this organ. Some think that humans have evolved to the point where the appendix isn't needed any more, after it had served some service during our hypothetical evolution. Others say that the appendix produces vital antibiotics and beneficial bacteria during the fetal and infant stage of the human, as experiments have shown that it is rich in lymphoid cells, which fight infection. Another theory as to it's function is that it serves as a storage dock for useful bacteria when infection flushes out the body, but there is very little evidence to support this. The bottom line is that while the appendix probably has a function, we have not studied it enough to know what it does.
