Digestion/ Absorption and Homeostasis In order to survive‚ our bodies must bring in energy and nutrients for the cells of the body through eating and digestion of food. To be carried to the cells of the body by the blood stream‚ food must be broken down to molecules. This breaking down of food into molecules‚ small enough to be absorbed into and carried through the blood stream‚ is carried out by the digestive system through the process of digestion and absorption. Digestion is the process of
