Students will come to understand The first step in digestion is ingestion of food into the mouth where food is chewed by the teeth which is mechanical digestion. Chemical also digestion begins in the mouth. As food is chewed, salivary glands secrete amylase, which converts starch into maltose, a disaccharide. They will discover that the dual processes of mechanical and chemical digestion ensure the efficient breakdown and absorption of food. The components of food are reduced to their molecular states to enable absorption into the bloodstream.\n
