what is gizzard?
Answer:
Gizzard, in many birds, the hind part of the stomach, especially modified for grinding food. Located between the saclike crop and the intestine, the gizzard has a thick muscular wall and may contain small stones, or gastroliths, that function in the mechanical breakdown of seeds and other foods.
function of gizzard:
Hepatic caeca produces digestive enzymes. With the help of these digestive enzymes the digestion of food takes place in the mesentron. After the digestion the nutrient such as carbohydrates, fats and proteins are absorbed by the midgut, especially in the more anterior parts including the caeca. All the nutrients are absorbed. Remaining nutrients and water are absorbed in the hindgut especially in the rectum.
