2. ESOPHAGUS: food travel down the esophagus to the stomach.

3. STOMACH: where food mixes with gastric juices.

4. LIVER: it produces a liquid called bile that helps break down food

5. SMALL INTESTINE: where food mixes with bile from the liver. Nutrients are absorbed here.

6. LARGE INTESTINE: the undigested food passes into the large intestine

7. RECTUM: faeces pass through the rectum and leave the body through the anus.
