d) moves food into the large intestine

Answer 2

Answer:

Carries out limited amount of absorption

Explanation:

Food is digested in the stomach, which is shaped like a J. It creates acids and enzymes (substances that catalyse chemical reactions) (digestive juices). Food is broken down by a combination of enzymes and digestive fluids so that it may pass through to your small intestine.

The stomach’s purpose is to digest food and send it to your small intestine. It has three functions:

• Temporarily store food.

• Contract and relax to mix and break down food.

• Produce enzymes and other specialized cells to digest food.
