  1. THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM

  2. Q #1 • Digestion begins in the oral cavity. • Process called digestion occurs as food is broken down both chemically and mechanically. • Broken down foods must be absorbed into the blood stream. • Undigested food remains are removed, or excreted, from the body in feces.

  3. Organs forming the continuous tube from the mouth to the anus are collectively called the gastrointestinal tract. • Organs outside of the digestive tract proper (food does not travel through) and secrete their products into the digestive tract are called accessory digestive system organs.
