Answer:

Saliva, the watery liquid produced by glands located under the tongue, is an essential component of the digestive process. Saliva is 98% water, so it moistens the mouth and helps compact food into softened particles for easier swallowing. Our teeth and tongue work as a food processor, using saliva as the liquid necessary to create a mixture suitable for the stomach.
