Question

Digestion of food occurs in the small intestine. No further digestion takes place when food passes from the small intestine to the large intestine.

TRUE

FALSE

Answer 1

False - 90% of digestion occurs in the small intestines because that's where the food nutrients are absorbed.

Answer 2

Here is your answer:

This statement is "false" or the second option. Digestion takes places as soon as you put food in your mouth. That's because your saliva has chemicals that starts to break down the food as soon as you put it in your mouth. Then it goes down through your esophagus then through your stomach going through the primary intestines but when it gets to the small intestine that's when it sucks all the nutrient's out of the food that would give the body energy and gets rid of the food that won't.

Hope this helps!
