There are six major phases covered by digestion: ingestion, acceleration, mechanical or physical digestion, chemical digestion, absorption and defecation. The first of these procedures, ingestion, relates to the absorption of food via the mouth into the food canal.

PLEASE HELP<br><br> How do Creeping Thistles (flowering vascular plant) adapt to life on land??
yulyashka [42]

Creeping thistle continuously survives through easy germination of seeds. The Creeping thistle seed can be buried in undisturbed soil for over 20 years and still become growable. And also, the roots help in their growth. They absorb nutrients and regenerate to form new plants. Although the roots may be able to penetrate some meters down, most regeneration occurs within or just below the plow layer. Portions of the adjacent roots become thick due to the developing storage tissue which is where new shoots are formed.
