__Chemical digestion:__ Chemical digestion, as the name says, is using chemicals in your body to digest the food that you are eating. Digestion is the process where the food in your body is being converted into small pieces so that your body can absorb it. When this kind of digestion is being taken, it uses chemicals in your body like the stomach acid to break the food down. __Mechanical digestion:__ Like any other digestion, this is also the process of breaking down food except using the manual parts of your body. Just like the teeth. The teeth will chew and rip the food apart making it easier to digest and keep the nutrients. And so saying that, it is from the mouth that the mechanical digestion begins.
