That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The correct answer is "Mouth, Oesophagus, Stomach, Small intestine, Large Intestine, Rectum." This is the correct sequence of organs through which food passes in the digestive system. The mouth is where food enters the body and is chewed, the oesophagus is the tube that carries food from the mouth to the stomach, the stomach breaks down food further with digestive juices, the small intestine absorbs nutrients from the broken-down food, the large intestine absorbs water and electrolytes, and the rectum stores and eliminates waste.
