Question

question 1
where does most chemical digestion take place?
small intestine
mouth
stomach
large intestine

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Chemical digestion involves enzymes breaking down food. The small intestine has enzymes from the pancreas and its own lining. It also receives bile from the liver (stored in the gallbladder). These factors make it the site for most chemical digestion. The mouth starts carbohydrate digestion (salivary amylase), the stomach has pepsin for protein digestion (but limited compared to the small intestine), and the large intestine mainly absorbs water and forms feces, with minimal chemical digestion.

Answer:

Small intestine
