  3. 1. INGESTION •  This is the process in which food is taken inside the body. • 2.  DIGESTION • It is the process of breaking complex molecules of organic food into simpler molecules .This takes place with the help of digestive juices which contain differentSpecific enzymes acting on specific food components like carbohydrates , fat, protein etc.This process is called digestion.
