10. MOUTH
Digestion begins at the mouth, where food is taken in and broken down into smaller particles by chewing. Saliva in the mouth moistens the food.

11. The Teeth
The teeth chew and tear the food into small bits of pieces.

12. Salivary Glands

Enzymes: digest starches and converts them into simpler substances known as sugars

Duodenum
Ileum
Duodenum: is the first part of the small intestine where
a- Bile juice is secreted from the liver.
b- Pancreatic juice poured from the pancreas
Ileum: the digestion to different types of food is
completed.

19. Remember:
Bile juice: helps to digest fats where it changes fats into fatty emulsion
Absorption: takes place through the small intestine walls

20. LIVER

21. LARGE INTESTINE Starts with the rectum and end in then anus.
