everyone is different. when i went for an upper GI, they time how long each individual takes to digest the liquid/paste drink they give you. as time passes they do a scan to see where the substance is at that time. some people it passes through after an hour, me took more like 5-6

My cycle is approximately 24 hours, but it varies from one person to the other. Also, it is affected by diet, how much you eat at a time, water intake, and a lot of other not so obvious factors. I have seen people whose cycle was closer to 12 hours, and some that were more like 30 hours. I know what mine is from a test I had run swallowing a camera pill. I took it at 7AM one morning and collected it in the morning mail at 6:45 AM the following morning.

It depends on you and your diet. Unhealthy food and certain food combinations affect digestion. A very healthy digestion cycle shouldn't be more than a day.

That varies depending on your age, your physical condition, your activity levels, and several other factors - so there is no precise answer. Generally, from mouth to toilet takes 18 to 26 hours.

Rule of thumb: 12-48 hrs.

It can vary. Some people 24 hours. Some people two days. Some people more days.
For me it is two days.
