Digestive Flowchart

The human digestive system involves a series of steps starting from ingestion in the mouth, where food is chewed and mixed with saliva. It progresses through the pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine for digestion and absorption, and culminates in the large intestine, rectum, and anus for waste storage and elimination. Each stage plays a crucial role in breaking down food and absorbing nutrients.
