The document discusses the key organs of the digestive system, including the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, pancreas, liver, and gallbladder. It explains that digestion begins in the mouth and is completed in the anus. The digestive system breaks down food through a process called digestion, with different organs releasing enzymes to break down food at various stages as it moves through the system.
