Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -When we swallow, the food travels into our stomach, where strong gastric acids continue the chemical breakdown of fats and proteins (cheese, beef). Next, the food matter travels into the small intestine. Here, the chemical breakdown of carbohydrates continues, and all digestion of the rest of the food is completed.
Detailed explanation-2: -The stomach would take in the hamburger from the esophagus (gullet or food pipe), mixes it, breaks it down, and then passes it on to the small intestine in small portions. The small intestine is the part of the intestines where 90% of the digestion and absorption of the hamburger would occur.
