Between the mouth and the anus is a large organ system known as the digestive tract, where food passes through and modified in some deemed as hollow organs. Therefore, solid organs are not hollow but still play a vital role in the digestion of food.

Solid Organs

The Oesophagus is a hollow organ that extends from the hypopharynx at the level of the cervical vertebral C6 to the stomach. 

oesophagus

The small intestine develops into a long narrow, coiled tube that extends from the stomach to the large intestine. Within the small intestine, most of the bodies digestion and absorption of food takes place.

Small intestine 

A fully developed average stomach lies just below the diaphragm in the upper part of the abdominal cavity, with the greater curvature lying to the left of the midline under a portion of the liver.

The Stomach 

The large intestine is the terminal part of the digestive track.

Large Intestine 

The digestive system is uniquely constructed to turn food into molecules that can be absorbed and utilised by the body's cells. From the mouth to the anus, the digestive system is a long continuous passageway of various organs, which all play a vital role in digestion.

The digestive system is uniquely constructed to turn food into molecules absorbed and utilised by the body's cells. From the mouth to the anus,&nbsp;the digestive system is a long, continuous passageway of various organs, which all play a vital role in digestion. Food is broken down, bit by bit, until the molecules are small enough to be absorbed in the small intestine and the waste products are eliminated out of the anus. The digestive system includes the digestive tract and its accessory organs. The digestive tract, also called the alimentary canal or gastrointestinal (GI) tract, includes the <a href="https://theframe.pinkbeton.com/d/mouth">mouth</a>, <a href="https://theframe.pinkbeton.com/d/mouth">pharynx</a>, oesophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum and anus.&nbsp; The tongue and teeth supporting the digestive tract are accessory structures located in the mouth for mastication. The major accessory organs&nbsp;essential for digestion are the salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas, which secrete fluids into the digestive tract.&nbsp;&nbsp;
