- Yasha Kiara Felicity Roa replied 3 years, 8 months ago
  The digestive system is made up of the digestive tract and other organs that help the body break down and absorb food. It is a long, twisting tube that starts at the mouth and goes through the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, and anus. The digestive system breaks down food into nutrients such as carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. They can then be absorbed into the bloodstream so the body can use them for energy, growth, and repair. Unused materials are discarded as feces (poo).
