The journey of the food through the digestive system will actually digest the food. The rest will be given out as feces.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The digestive system actually consists of digestive tract and Digestive glands. The processes that are associated with digestive system is - ingestion, digestion, absorption, assimilation and egestion.

The food that is taken is first smashed and chewed into a rough bolus by mixing with saliva. The salivary amylase slightly digests the starch into dextrin.

Then the food is engulfed through the oesophagus into stomach. Inside stomach, the food is mixed with an enzyme pepsin and HCl. Pepsin digests the proteins into peptones and peptides. The food is converted into a bolus and transported into duodenum.

In duodenum, there are several enzymes from small intestine and pancreas breaks the fats into fatty acids, proteins into peptides and starch into carbohydrates like glucose. They are absorbed and the undigested substances are left over ad feces.

Answer:

The three processes from left to right are:

Replication DNA Trancription RNA Translation Protein

Explanation:

The process in question in the diagram is called the central dogma of life which describes the flow of genetic information from DNA to RNA to Protein. The three processes involved are:

DNA Replication
Transcription
Translation

DNA Replication:

DNA replication is the process by which DNA makes a copy of itself. Replication of DNA is semi-conservative. this means that each new helix is a combination of an old (parent) strands and a new (daughter strand). The parental strand is used as a template to generate a complementary daughter strand.

Transcription:

Transcription is the formation of an RNA transcript of the DNA template. This process yields a mRNA that is further used as a code to manufacture proteins in the process of translation.

Translation:

Translation decodes the mRNA formed in transcription to generate proteins with specific amino acid sequence.
