Alimentary canal (the digestive tract) — the series of muscular structures through which food passes while being converted to nutrients and waste products; includes the oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, large intestine, and small intestine.

Pancreas — an enzyme-producing gland located below the stomach and above the intestines. Enzymes from it help in the digestion of carbohydrates, fats and proteins in the small intestine.

Liver — a large organ located above and in front of the stomach. It filters toxins from the blood, and makes bile (which breaks down fats) and some blood proteins.

Peristalsis — rhythmic muscle movements that force food in the esophagus from the throat into the stomach. Peristalsis is involuntary — you cannot control it.

Gall bladder — a small, sac-like organ located by the duodenum. It stores and releases bile (a digestive chemical which is produced in the liver) into the small intestine.
