What is the order of organs that food passes through when you eat.?

When you eat, food passes through the following organs in order:

1. Mouth: Chewing breaks down food into smaller pieces and mixes it with saliva, an enzyme that begins to break down carbohydrates.

2. Esophagus: The esophagus is a muscular tube that connects the mouth to the stomach. It uses rhythmic contractions called peristalsis to move food down.

3. Stomach: The stomach is a J-shaped organ that stores food and breaks it down further with gastric juices, which contain hydrochloric acid and enzymes.

4. Small intestine: The small intestine is the longest part of the digestive system. It is where most of the absorption of nutrients takes place. The walls of the small intestine are lined with tiny finger-like projections called villi, which increase the surface area for absorption.

5. Large intestine: The large intestine absorbs water and electrolytes from the remaining food material, forming feces. The feces are then stored in the rectum until they are passed out of the body through the anus.
