Answer:
The fate of hamburger from mouth to anus happens as described below.
Mouth: In the mouth, the chewed hamburger is acted upon by the salivary amylase present in saliva secreted by the salivary gland. The salivary amylase begins the digestion of carbohydrates present in the hamburger. Complex carbohydrates are broken down to simpler sugars.
The mucus secreted by mucus glands lubricates the bolus (chewed and digested hamburger) which travels through the esophagus.
