Description

The digestive system is a complex network of organs responsible for breaking down food into smaller, usable nutrients that the body can absorb and utilize for energy, growth, and repair. This process involves both mechanical and chemical breakdown, starting in the mouth and continuing through the gastrointestinal tract. The digestive system also eliminates undigested waste products.
