Answer:

A

Explanation:

peristalsis

movements that the large tubes inside the body make automatically to push something out or along

B

The digestive functions of saliva include moistening food, and helping to create a food bolus, so it can be swallowed easily. Saliva contains the enzyme amylase that breaks some starches down into maltose and dextrin. Thus, digestion of food occurs within the mouth, even before food reaches the stomach

C

the pulpy acidic fluid which passes from the stomach to the small intestine, consisting of gastric juices and partly digested food..

D

Bile is a fluid that is made and released by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. Bile helps with digestion. It breaks down fats into fatty acids, which can be taken into the body by the digestive tract.
