Question

write about salivary glands

Answer 1

Saliva is important to lubricate your mouth, help with swallowing, protect your teeth against bacteria, and aid in the digestion of food. The three major pairs of salivary glands are: parotid glands on the insides of the cheeks. submandibular glands at the floor of the mouth. sublingual glands under the tongue

Answer 2

The salivary glands produce saliva, which keeps the mouth and other parts of the digestive system moist.

It also helps break down carbohydrates (with salivary amylase, formerly known as ptyalin) and lubricates the passage of food down from the oro-pharynx to the esophagus to the stomach.

There are three main pairs of salivary glands: the parotid, the submandibular and the sublingual glands.
