ikadub [295]

Answer:

D. chemical digestion

Explanation:

In chemical digestion, large food molecules are broken down into smaller particles thanks to the action of enzymes present in the digestive juice, undergoing changes in their chemical composition.

Chemical digestion is a process that occurs with the action of enzymes. It starts in the mouth with the action of the enzyme amylase, which is present in saliva and digesting starch. In the stomach, there is the action of gastric juice, consisting of hydrochloric acid and the enzyme pepsin, which acts on protein digestion.  In the small intestine, the food undergoes the action of substances produced by the pancreas (alkaline substance containing trypsin and chymotrypsin, enzymes that act on proteins) and by the liver (bile, which contains salts that act on the digestion of fat, is produced by liver but is stored and concentrated in the gallbladder).
