Answer 8

yeah i agree to the above answers food is broken down so that it could be easily absorbed by the microvili in our intestine also some food like sugar need to be broken down immediately so that they are used up before they can harm your body but food like oils get stored in the adipose (fat) tissues because there presence dosnt harm the body as much as sugar can

Answer 9

because if you think about how large food is. it's a huge big chain of elements that are stuck together. we have an assembly line that takes the pieces apart until it is able to be reused to energize our own bodies. unless we ingested pure single sugar fat protien and nucleic acid compound we need to digest everything we eat.
