Answer:

mouth - food is entered into the mouth , digestion is started here

stomach - The stomach is a hollow organ, or "container," that holds food while it is being mixed with stomach enzymes. These enzymes continue the process of breaking down food into a usable form. Cells in the lining of the stomach secrete a strong acid and powerful enzymes that are responsible for the breakdown process

small intestine - The small intestine breaks down food from the stomach and absorbs much of the nutrients from the food, digestion is completed and absorption begins

liver - bile is created here . largest gland in the body

pancreas - During digestion, your pancreas makes pancreatic juices called enzymes.

large intestine - The purpose of the large intestine is to absorb water and salts from the material that has not been digested as food, and get rid of any waste products left over
