The muscular system is the mechanical force behind the digestive system. Beginning when you take a bite, your muscular system aids your digestive system. Chewing and swallowing are done by the muscular system; muscles surrounding your stomach churn up food to aid digestion; muscles transport digested food through your intestines and eventually out of your body. (The muscles for chewing and swallowing are voluntary muscles; the rest are involuntary.)
The digestive system comprises of organs that work together in order to ensure that food is properly processed through the body. Examples of such organs include the stomach and the intestines.
