Test Key Place the following parts in order from 1-9 that food moves through your gastrointestinal tract and briefly describe the function of each part. __5__ Pancreas : The pancreas produces digestive enzymes which are activated when released in the small intestine and bicarbonate solution to neutralize the stomach chyme. __4__ Stomach : Digestion and storage of food. Digestive acids and enzymes are released and peristalsis further grinds up the bolus __3__ Pharynx/ Esophagus : The bolus travels down the esophagus by peristalsis __6__ Liver : The liver produces bile (breaks down fats) __2__ Salivary Glands : The salivary glands release amylase into the mouth which start digesting starches __8__ Small Intestine : The small intestine is where the majority of the food is digested and where nutrients are absorbed. __7__ Gall Bladder : The gallbladder stores bile that is released when undigested fats enter the small intestine. __1__ Mouth : Food enters through the mouth and is broken down into a bolus by chewing __9__ Large Intestine : Stores fecal matter until defecation
