What organs are in the digestive system of a cheetah?

How food passes from the mouth to the rectum?
Food is chewed into small bits and mixed with saliva in the mouth to start the digestive process.The food is then swallowed and then pushed down the esophagus.It enters the stomach where it is mixed with acid and further broken down into soft mush using hydrochloric acid that is produced there for the occasion.The mush (called chyme) goes into the small intestine where it is turned into a liquid and nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream.From there it goes into the large intestine where some water is absorbed. Small amounts of toxins from the blood may be added to the material.Then it finally arrives at the rectum......And leaves the body via the anus.
What controls the amount of chyme entering that small intestine?
The pyloric sphincter controls the amount of chyme entering the small intestine from the stomach. It regulates the flow of partially digested food to ensure that it is properly mixed with digestive enzymes and bile for further digestion. This helps to maintain optimal conditions for nutrient absorption in the small intestine.

you people better figure it out or else......
