The gizzard is like teeth in an animal because the gizzard grinds down the soil into bits.
The organ in birds that holds swallowed rocks to aid in digestion is called the gizzard. The gizzard uses these rocks to grind up food before it moves on to the rest of the digestive system.

The crop is a muscular pouch in the digestive system of birds that stores and moistens food before digestion, while the gizzard is a muscular organ that grinds and breaks down food using grit or small stones ingested by the bird. The crop is responsible for storage and initial breakdown of food, while the gizzard's main function is mechanical digestion to further break down tough food particles.
The gizzard in a worm helps grind up food particles so that they can be digested more easily. It is a muscular organ that contracts and relaxes to break down food before passing it on to the intestine for further digestion.
Yes, birds rely on a combination of mechanical digestion in the gizzard, aided by grit or stones, and chemical digestion through gastric acids to break down food effectively. The gizzard's muscular contractions help grind up food, while the acids help further break down the food particles.
The gizzard is a digestive organ that helps breakdown food in the earthworm. similar to the turkeys gizzard. The turkey also has a gizzard that serves the same purpose.
The function of an earthworm's gizzard is that the gizzard grinds organic matter.
Yes the gizzard diggests the food / crushes it
your mom tht is what!!!
The organ in an earthworm that grinds up food is called the gizzard. It is a muscular structure that helps break down food particles before they enter the intestine for digestion.
the crop
yes it is
In the gizzard.

Gizzard
The gizzard is harder than the crop in an earthworm. The gizzard is a muscular organ with stones inside that help grind up food, while the crop is a storage organ that stores food temporarily before it moves to the gizzard for digestion.
The earthworm's crop and gizzard feel different because they perform two different functions. The gizzard is hard to the touch because it is used to grind the soil the earthworm takes into its body. The crop is soft and more saclike because it stores food that the earthworm separates from the other things it takes in.
