Detailed explanation-1: -Chemical digestion is a vital part of the digestive process. Without it, your body wouldn’t be able to absorb nutrients from the foods you eat. While mechanical digestion involves physical movements, such as chewing and muscle contractions, chemical digestion uses enzymes to break down food.
Detailed explanation-2: -Digestion is the process of mechanically and enzymatically breaking down food into substances for absorption into the bloodstream. The food contains three macronutrients that require digestion before they can be absorbed: fats, carbohydrates, and proteins.
Detailed explanation-3: -Amylase (made in the mouth and pancreas; breaks down complex carbohydrates) Lipase (made in the pancreas; breaks down fats) Protease (made in the pancreas; breaks down proteins)
