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.
Food enters the mouth where the first stage in the digestive process takes place, with the action of the tongue and the secretion of saliva. The tongue is a fleshy and muscular sensory organ, and the very first sensory information is received via the taste buds on its surface.
