Digestive System Explanation
Have you wondered what happens to the food that you crunch? Well let me tell you...
First it gets crunched into tiny pieces of crumbs plus the saliva makes the crumbs into really watery slimy, sticky ,spit.
Second it dives down and gets squished in the long tube called the oesophagus where it puts the crumbs into the ... Stomach area. This area has stomach spraying smelly acids that break the food down.
Next it travels to the... Small intestine which is 25 foot long including where the villi sucks out all of the nutrients from the food.
The crumbs take a trip to the large intestine land which is 5 foot long and it absorbs water.
Finally it waits to go out of the rectum and goes into the dungeon which is the toilet.
So there! That's how your food turns into poop!
