1

Rationale 1: Digestion is the process by which the body breaks down ingested food into small molecules that can be absorbed.
Rationale 2: Cardiac output is the amount of blood pumped by the heart through the circulatory system in 1 minute.
Rationale 3:Peristalsis is when substances are propelled along the GI tract by the contractions of several layers of smooth muscles.
Rationale 4:The stomach contents are further neutralized by bicarbonate from pancreatic and biliary secretions.

Global Rationale: Digestion is the process by which the body breaks down ingested food into small molecules that can be absorbed.
