Answer:

Ingestion is when food comes into the body through the mouth and down the esophagus. Digestion begins with chemically with enzymes in saliva, and mechanically with the teeth, and continues when food (as a bolus) enters the stomach to be dissolved by acid and pepsin. Food (chyme) then goes into the small intestine where nutrients are absorbed through the villi. Waste is then eliminated through the large intestine, rectum, and anus.

Step-by-step explanation:
