- 15. the changing of food into a usable form
- 16. A ______ occurs when large food pieces are broken down into smaller pieces
- 18. A ______ turns food into a form the cells can use
- 19. any change in copying the DNA message
- 20. ______ system is a group of organs that take in food and change it into a form the body can use
- 23. a long, hollow, tubelike oran (most of chemical digestion of food take place here)
