The Digestion System

Today, i have learned some thing about the digestion system so when food goes into your mouth your teeth breaks it down. The tongue stirs the food so that it mixes with the saliva and turns it to a paste, making it easy to swallow. When we swallow food the food is pushed up the esophagus pushes food into the stomach. Gastric juice breaks down food into a thick paste. Then the mushy food comes to the small intestine. The small intestine breaks down food into smaller pieces, and the nutrients in the food are absorbed. And finally the large intestine absorbs the water in the food, and the remaining residue forms faces, which are excreted through the anus.
