Breaking Down Digestion. The digestion process is a combination of chemical and mechanical digestion. Chemical digestion breaks down food via a chemical change, in which the digestive juices and enzymes break down food into components small enough to enter the GI tract, the blood cells or the lymph cells.
The human digestive system consists of the gastrointestinal tract plus the accessory organs of digestion (the tongue, salivary glands, pancreas, liver, and gallbladder). In this system, the process of digestion has many stages, the first of which starts in the mouth (oral cavity). Digestion involves the breakdown of food into smaller and smaller components, until they can be absorbed and assimilated into the body.
