    The document summarizes Anthony Rios' lab report on the digestive system. It describes the key structures and functions of the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine. The mouth breaks down food with saliva and teeth and sends it to the esophagus. The stomach uses acidic juices to further break down food into chyme, which is then passed to the small intestine for nutrient absorption. The small intestine then sends waste to the large intestine, which compacts it into feces until it is released from the body. Diagrams and data are provided on the effects of enzymes and hormones on digestion.
