Chopping is cutting food into large, irregular pieces. Mincing involves cutting food into very small pieces. Cubing results in uniform, cube-shaped pieces. Dicing involves cutting food into small, even pieces.
Mastication, or chewing, is the process of breaking down food into smaller pieces in the mouth using teeth and the tongue. This mechanical digestion increases the surface area of food particles, making it easier for digestive enzymes to further break down nutrients in the digestive system.
Mechanical digestion is not considered a chemical change. Mechanical digestion involves physically breaking down food into smaller pieces through chewing and mixing with digestive juices, whereas chemical digestion involves enzymes breaking down macromolecules into smaller molecules.
Small pieces of food have a larger surface area-to-volume ratio, allowing heat to penetrate more efficiently. This results in quicker and more uniform cooking compared to larger pieces that have a smaller surface area relative to their volume.

They help in metabolism i.e the breaking down of large food substances.

This is when food particles are breaking down into even tinier pieces by: hydrochloric acid in your stomach. That is chemical digestion.

it is in mouth that the food we eat is broken in to small pieces which makes it easier to be digested (large molecules of food converted to small once)
The large intestine is the final place for breaking down food
