Longitudinalsection, a, diverticulum of a lung; b, stomach; c, liver; d, yelk-sac. It is plain that if, in the digestive tract, foods are changedin solubility and actual chemical constitution, this must havebeen brought about by chemical agencies. That food is brokenup at the very commencement of the alimentary tract is amatter of common observation; and that there should be agradual movement of the food from one part of the canal toanother, where a different fluid is secreted, would be a matter of fact, mechanical and chemical forces play a DIGESTION OF FOOD. 279 large part in the actual preparation of the food for these lie, of course, the vital
