The first organ to receive carbohydrates after the small intestine is the liver via the portal vein.
That would be the liver. Blood coming from your intestines go through a system called the portal system which is brought to the liver via the hepatic portal vein. Anything that you eat or drink will be brought to the liver for modification and assimilation so that the rest of the body can use it.
The primary organs that process sugar in the body are the liver and the pancreas. The pancreas produces insulin, which helps cells absorb glucose from the bloodstream for energy or storage. The liver regulates blood sugar levels by storing excess glucose as glycogen and releasing it when needed. Together, these organs maintain stable energy levels and metabolic balance.

It is not correct.

When glucose levels are high in the human body, a condition known as hyperglycemia occurs. The pancreas responds by releasing insulin, a hormone that helps cells absorb glucose for energy or storage. If high glucose levels persist, it can lead to insulin resistance, where cells become less responsive to insulin, potentially resulting in diabetes. Prolonged hyperglycemia can also cause damage to blood vessels and organs.
The mouth is one of the organs of the digestive tract that doesn't absorb nutrients. Another is the esophagus.
large intestine
Once the food enters the stomach, acids come in and absorb those nutrients and bring them to the organs
phagocytosis
Glucose and fructose.
No; insulin causes cells to absorb glucose.
The adipose tissue, the liver and the muscles are the three tissues that absorb most glucose after eating.
