    The digestive system is a group of organs that work together to convert food into energy and nutrients for the entire body. The long tube inside the body called the alimentary canal or gastrointestinal tract (GI tract) passes food through and is made up of the oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestines, and large intestines. Accessory organs like the teeth, tongue, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas help digest food but do not have food pass through them. The six major functions of the digestive system are ingestion, secretion, mixing and movement, digestion, absorption, and excretion.

    DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
    The digestive system is a group of organs working together to convert food into energy and
    basic nutrients to feed the entire body.

    Food passes through a long tube inside the body known as the alimentary canal or the
    gastrointestinal tract (GI tract). The alimentary canal is made up of the oral cavity, pharynx,
    esophagus, stomach, small intestines, and large intestines. In addition to the alimentary canal,
    there are several important accessory organs that help your body to digest food but do not
    have food pass through them. Accessory organs of the digestive system include the teeth,
    tongue, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. To achieve the goal of providing
    energy and nutrients to the body, six major functions take place in the digestive system:

     Ingestion
     Secretion
     Mixing and movement
     Digestion
     Absorption
     Excretion
