What are the major organs that make up your system ?

There are four major organs that make up the digestive system.Mouth: chews the food (mechanically) Esophagus: brings the food downStomach: tears food apart(chemically) Anus: lets out solid wastes

Page 6: Digestive system By: Meghan, Jordan and Kaleb 8I.

How do these organs work together These organs work together by starting from the top and working the way down. So first, the mouth chews up the food (mechanical) then the esophagus brings the food down to the stomach that (chemically) dissolves the food. Then it comes out as solid waste.

(chemically).
