What is the route food takes as it moves through your body?

Food is chewed in the mouth, which begins breaking it down. It's then swallowed and enters the stomach, where it is mixed with stomach acid and further broken down into a slurry. It then passes into the small intestine, where nutrients are drawn from the slurry through the walls of the intestine. As the slurry becomes thicker, it passes into the large intestine, where most of the remaining liquids are removed. What is left passes from the large intestine to the rectum, where it remains until pressure triggers the urge to defecate.


How body excrete the waste products?

There are three principal organs of excretion. The kidneys excrete urine, which contains wastes filtered from the blood. The lungs excrete carbon dioxide, produced as a waste in respiration. The skin excretes various substances in sweat, including nitrogenous waste. We also pass faeces from the anus at the end of the alimentary canal, but biologists call this as egestion, not excretion, because this is not waste made in the body, just the leftover parts of food that were never absorbed in the first place.
