The digestive system is a complex network that processes food from ingestion to excretion. It begins in the mouth, where food is broken down, then travels through the esophagus to the stomach. Here, it transforms into a semi-liquid mixture called chyme. The small intestine, the largest component, comprises the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum, absorbing nutrients. Remaining waste progresses to the large intestine, with organs like the liver and pancreas playing crucial roles in processing and digestion. Understanding these components is vital for health.
