Process of dissolving and chemically converting food for absorption by cells. In the mouth, food is chewed, mixed with saliva, which begins to break down starches, and kneaded by the tongue into a ball for swallowing. Peristalsis propels it through the esophagus and the rest of the alimentary canal. In the stomach, food mixes with acid and enzymes, which further break it down. The mixture, called chyme, enters the duodenum, the first part of the small intestine. Bile from the liver breaks up fat globules. Enzymes from the pancreas and intestinal glands act on specific molecules, breaking carbohydrates down into simple sugars, proteins into amino acids, and fats into glycerol and fatty acids. These products are absorbed by the bloodstream. Indigestible substances, such as fibre, pass into the large intestine, where water and ions are reabsorbed and feces held for excretion; The breakdown of food molecules into smaller ones; the organic process by which food is converted into substances that can be absorbed into the body the process of decomposing organic matter (as in sewage) by bacteria or by chemical action or heat; process by which large insoluble food molecules are broken into smaller, soluble food molecules by enzymes in the gut; The breaking down of foodstuffs in the body into a form that can be absorbed and used or excreted; As a waste treatment process, refers to the breakdown of organic matter in a water solution or suspension into simpler or more biologically stable compounds, or both In anaerobic digestion organic matter may be decomposed to soluble organic acids or alcohols, then converted to gases such as methane and carbon dioxide; Body process in which food is broken down so that it may be utilized for energy production or storage; learning and coming to understand ideas and information; "his appetite for facts was better than his digestion" the organic process by which food is converted into substances that can be absorbed into the body the process of decomposing organic matter (as in sewage) by bacteria or by chemical action or heat; the organic process by which food is converted into substances that can be absorbed into the body; The process of breaking food down into smaller nutrients when can then be absorbed into the body; The process of heating a sample to solubilize it and free the analyte[s] For example, strong acids and oxidizing agents [e g HNO3] are usually used to remove metal ions from organic species to which they may be bound; (biocon) The process by which ORGANIC MATTER is decomposed by the action of ANAEROBIC BACTERIA, producing METHANE and high-grade fertilizer F - digestion S - digestion; The conversion of food, in the stomach and intestines, into soluble and diffusible products, capable of being absorbed by the blood; The biochemical decomposition of organic matter using anaerobic bacteria, which results in the formation of simpler and less offensive compounds; The biochemical decomposition of organic matter which results in the formation of mineral and simpler organic compounds; learning and coming to understand ideas and information; "his appetite for facts was better than his digestion"; disgestion; digesture; coction
