ABSORPTION AND EXCREATION: OVERVIEW OF THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
The digestive system is a complex network of organs responsible for breaking down food into smaller, usable nutrients that the body can absorb and utilize for energy, growth, and repair.

The digestive system also eliminates undigested waste products.
