Saliva – softened and moisten


food, it contains an enzyme
that digests starch.
carries food down into the
stomach through peristaltic
movement
Peristalsis – contraction
and relaxation movement
of the muscle that
squeezes and pushes food
down to the stomach
A muscular bag-like organ at the
end of the esophagus. It
squeezes the food and mixes it
with the gastric juices through
peristalsis until it becomes thick
and soupy mixture. The gastric
juices help in breaking down
protein and destroy
microorganism in the food
releases pancreatic juices
that help in digestion of
carbohydrates, fats and
proteins.
where final digestion takes place,
digestive juices in small intestine

substances that can pass through
