The esophagus delivers food to the stomach. A valve is a thing which keeps food from passing backwards. stomach The stomach is a sack like origin with strong muscular walls. Your stomach serves a mixer and grinder of food. The stomachs secrets is acid and powerful enzymes. Your food move to your small intestine. Small intestate The small intestate breaks down food like a stomach does. It also breaks down food using the enzymes. The small intestate is the ‘work horse’ of the digestive system. This is were most nutrient are absorbed. The pancreases The pancreases help break down protein and carbohydrates. It also makes insulin for your body. Insulin is something that goes straight into the bloodstream. Insulin is a chief hormone for metabolizing. Liver There is two main functions in the liver within the digestive system. Cleanse and purify is to help the blood from coming this contains the nutrients just absorbed. Also absorbs fat as well as the intestates. The liver is the body's chemical factory. gallbladder The gallbladder stores concentrates bile. Then it releases it in to the duodenum. And then it helps digest fats. The gallbladder also absorbs fats. The large intestate The colon also known as the large intestate is 5 feet long muscular tube. Its made up of the ascending colon, the traverse colon, the descending colon, and the sigmoid colon. The appendix is a small tube attached to the ascending colon.
