    The digestive system breaks down food into smaller pieces so that nutrients can be absorbed by the body. It is composed of the mouth, esophagus, stomach, liver, pancreas, small intestine, and large intestine. Digestion begins in the mouth and involves breaking down food. The esophagus transports food to the stomach, where acids and enzymes further break it down. The liver and pancreas produce bile and enzymes to aid digestion. The small intestine further breaks down food and absorbs nutrients. Undigested waste passes to the large intestine to be excreted.

    Original Description:

    This power point is all about the human digestive system.
