  • The human digestive system consists of the alimentary canal and accessory organs
  • Alimentary Canal is made up of mouth, pharynx, oesophagus, stomach, small intestine (duodenum, jejunum, ileum), large intestine (cecum, colon, rectum) and anus.
  • Accessory Organs are salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, teeth and tongue.
  • Liver produces bile which helps emulsify fats so they can be digested by lipases.
