Answer:

Duodenum – The site of the maximum digestion. The duodenum is the first part of the small intestine and the chyme ( undigested food) is first received in this part  of the intestine.

Explanation:

The secretion of the digestive enzymes and digestive juices like  gallbladder and bile juice occurs in the duodenum. The chyme mixes with these digestive juices and helps in the maximum digestion of the food in this area.

  • Digestion may be defined as the process of the breakdown of the large food particles into the small components and further its absorption in the body.
  • The duodenum provided the maximum surface area for the digestion process. The duodenum is around 12 inches in length.
