Digestive Apparatus

  • Chapter

Abstract

The organs involved in the intake, transport, digestion, and absorption of food and drink make up the digestive or alimentary apparatus. It consists of a long canal (extending from the mouth to the anus) with which several kinds of glands (salivary, liver, and pancreas) are closely associated.
