Question

select the correct answer.
in the image, if the washcloth represents consumed food, which organ of the digestive system correctly represents the action performed by the hands?

a. esophagus
b. large intestine
c. liver
d. mouth

Explanation:

The hands are squeezing the washcloth (representing food), which is similar to the action of the mouth in the digestive system as the mouth physically manipulates food (chewing, etc.). The esophagus transports food, the large intestine absorbs water and compacts waste, and the liver processes nutrients but doesn't physically manipulate food like the hands here. So the mouth's action matches the hands' squeezing.

Answer:

D. mouth
