        Water absorption, form feces to be expelled later
        
        Duodenum, Ileum, Jejunum; completes digestion of food molecules, absorbs nutrients and vitamins
        
        Acidic environment, chyme and other juices, churning of food
        
        Tube through which bolus passes through
      - Mechanical digestion, breaks down food, chewing, salivary glands
