What would happen if you didn't have you stomach?
You can survive without your stomach. There are three main digestive organs...the mouth, stomach and small intestines. Without the stomach, you may have to eat smaller amounts at each sitting or you may have to adjust what you put into the system, but your body can still do some basic digestion and the bulk of the absorption of the food.

Nothing - the food would complete its journey through the digestive system. The food is only stored in the first stomach so it can be returned to the mouth for more chewing. If the cow didn't re-chew the food, it would still pass out the other end. Perhaps just a little less digested.

What is the name of the greenish-black substance found in the fetal pig's intestine?
Liver juices-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Not liver juices. Why would there be liver juices in the intestine?Its called Meconium. Since it is a fetal pig, meaning that it was still in the placenta when it was killed (to be used as a dissection, of course), it didnt use the digestive system because it didnt eat. Instead, what when through the stomach and intestines was meconium. Meconium is like urine, water, hair, and any cells, mucus, and bile.Hope this helped!-kutekat215
How does food get to your stomatch?
Before food can be used by the body, it has to go through parts of the digestive system. Once food enters your mouth, saliva helps it turn into bolus. The bolus moves to the pharynx and down the esophagus. Now it has reached the stomach. The stomach then adds mucus and digestive acids to the food, and then squeezes and mixes it for 4-6 hours. Then, the food goes through the small intestine. If it still isn't digested, it moves on to the large intestine, which takes it through the cecum and rectum.
