6. Mrs. Palma asked her daughter why was she taking a long time to change
clothes. Her daughter answered she went to the comfort room to dishcharge.
Which process of digestion is she referring to?
A. egestion
B. digestion
C. ingestion
D. absorption
7. Why is food digestion important?

A. In order for the body to easily absorb the nutrients.
B. In order the body to excrete fats easily after digestion.
C. In order for the nutrients to be transported easily to the different
parts of the body.
D. It is necessary for the food to break during digestion to easily release
it during the egestion process.
8. On the digestion process, as chyme enters the small intestine its process slows
down. Why do you think so?

body.

productively.
