Explanation / Answer

Large intestine- Absorbs water and salt to form feces

Teeth- chew food

Rectum- Storage and regulates elimination of feces

Liver- Processes and stores nutrients

Gall bladder- Stores bile from liver

Pancreas - Contains digestive enzymes produces insulin

Salivary gland- Secretes saliva

Tongue- Pushes food for chewing and swallowing

Pharynx- Passageway where food is swallowed

Esophagus- Passageway where peristalsis pushes food to the stomach

Stomach- Secretes acid and digestive enzymes to breakdown by proteins

Small intestine- Mixes chymes with digestive enzymes for final breakdown absorbs nutrients
