Solution

No, digestion does not occur inside the body in all organisms. Certain animals such as spiders inject their digestive juices in the body of their prey. These juices digest the different body parts of the insect and it is then consumed by spider. This process is called external digestion. Thus, all animals do not show digestion inside their bodies.
