  1. Stomach is involved in mechanical and chemical breakdown of food.

    Circular muscles of the stomach contract and churning of food breaks it down physically and mixes it with digestive enzymes for chemical breakdown. Gastric juice produced by cells in the lining of the stomach produce pepsin and HCl for digestion of protein.

    The large intestine reabsorbs useful water from waste and compacts faeces for elimination from the body.

    Hope this helps!


  2. to store and digest food idiot
