question 12
Question 11
Digestion begins in the mouth. In the mouth, mechanical digestion (chewing) and chemical digestion (saliva with amylase breaking down starch) start. The stomach, small intestine, and esophagus have different roles (stomach for protein digestion, small intestine for nutrient absorption, esophagus for transport), but the initial digestion is in the mouth.
Phytochemicals are plant - derived compounds. Frozen broccoli is a plant - based food. GMO corn is genetically modified, walnuts are nuts (but broccoli as a vegetable has a high content of phytochemicals like carotenoids, glucosinolates), and organic chicken eggs are animal - derived (no phytochemicals from plants). So frozen broccoli contains the most phytochemicals.
