The digestive system is a group of organs working together to convert
food into energy and basic nutrients to feed the entire body. Food
passes through a long tube inside the body known as the alimentary canal
or the gastrointestinal tract (GI tract). The alimentary canal is made
up of the oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestines,
and large intestines. In addition to the alimentary canal, there are
several important accessory organs that help your body to digest food

Both physical and chemical digestion begin in the mouth or oral cavity which is the point of entry of food into the digestive system. The food is broken into smaller particles by mastication, the chewing action of the teeth. Saliva contains mucus that moistens food and buffers the pH of the food.
