Let's solve the labeling task for the
Structure of the Digestive System diagram.
We are given a diagram with numbered labels (1 to 12), and we need to match each number to the correct organ from the list provided:
Organs List:
- Mouth
- Salivary Glands
- Epiglottis
- Esophagus
- Stomach
- Liver
- Gall Bladder
- Pancreas
- Small Intestine
- Large Intestine
- Rectum
- Anus
Now, let’s identify each labeled part based on standard human anatomy:
---
Step-by-step identification:
1.
Label 1 – Points to the
mouth
→
Mouth
2.
Label 2 – Points to glands near the mouth (under the jaw)
→
Salivary Glands
3.
Label 3 – Points to the large organ on the upper right side (above the stomach)
→
Liver
4.
Label 4 – Points to the small green sac attached to the liver
→
Gall Bladder
5.
Label 5 – Points to the lower end of the digestive tract, where waste exits
→
Anus
6.
Label 6 – Points to the long coiled tube below the stomach (main site of nutrient absorption)
→
Small Intestine
7.
Label 7 – Points to the wider tube surrounding the small intestine (where water is absorbed)
→
Large Intestine
8.
Label 8 – Points to the organ just below the esophagus, holding food temporarily
→
Stomach
9.
Label 9 – Points to the organ behind the stomach, releasing enzymes into the small intestine
→
Pancreas
10.
Label 10 – Points to the tube connecting the throat to the stomach
→
Esophagus
11.
Label 11 – Points to the flap that covers the windpipe during swallowing
→
Epiglottis
12.
Label 12 – Points to the rectal area, just before the anus
→
Rectum

Final Answer Key:
| Number | Organ |
|--------|-------------------|
| 1 | Mouth |
| 2 | Salivary Glands |
| 3 | Liver |
| 4 | Gall Bladder |
| 5 | Anus |
| 6 | Small Intestine |
| 7 | Large Intestine |
| 8 | Stomach |
| 9 | Pancreas |
| 10 | Esophagus |
| 11 | Epiglottis |
| 12 | Rectum |

Explanation:
This diagram illustrates the
human digestive system, showing how food moves through the body. The process starts at the
mouth, where digestion begins. Food travels down the
esophagus, enters the
stomach for mechanical and chemical breakdown, then moves to the
small intestine for nutrient absorption. The
large intestine absorbs water, and the remaining waste passes through the
rectum and out via the
anus.
Accessory organs like the
liver,
gallbladder, and
pancreas help in digestion by producing bile and digestive enzymes.
The
epiglottis prevents food from entering the airway during swallowing.

✔ So, fill in the blanks as follows:
1. Mouth
2. Salivary Glands
3. Liver
4. Gall Bladder
5. Anus
6. Small Intestine
7. Large Intestine
8. Stomach
9. Pancreas
10. Esophagus
11. Epiglottis
12. Rectum
