Answer:

Small intestine is the "part of the alimentary canal" food where it gets finally digested.

Option (d).

Explanation:

The "small intestine" is the place where all the "nutrients are absorbed". The products which are obtained after the breakdown of the food such as glucose, fatty acid, amino acids etc are absorbed in the bloodstream and the lymph.

The digestive system is made of different parts such as alimentary canal, pancreas etc. The alimentary canal is a tube-like structure which is long in size. It also has different parts like intestines, stomach, Oesophagus, etc. The process of digestion starts from our mouth and ends at the large intestine.
