Let's solve this step by step.
We are given a diagram of the human digestive system and a word box with the following terms:
Word Box:
- large intestine
- rectum
- liver
- esophagus
- tongue
- salivary glands
- pancreas
- stomach
- small intestine
- gall bladder
Now, we need to label the parts of the digestive system in the diagram using these words. Let’s identify each part based on its location and function.

Step-by-step labeling:
1.
Top left arrow pointing to the mouth area (the pink structure inside the mouth):
- This is the
tongue, which helps in chewing and mixing food with saliva.
-
✔ Label:
tongue
2.
Arrow pointing to the glands near the mouth (not visible but implied):
- The
salivary glands produce saliva and are located near the mouth (under the tongue and near the jaw).
- In diagrams like this, they are often indicated near the mouth.
-
✔ Label:
salivary glands
3.
Long tube going down from the mouth into the chest:
- This is the
esophagus, which carries food from the mouth to the stomach.
-
✔ Label:
esophagus
4.
Large organ on the upper right side of the abdomen (above the stomach):
- This is the
liver, which produces bile for fat digestion.
-
✔ Label:
liver
5.
Small green sac attached to the liver:
- This is the
gall bladder, which stores bile produced by the liver.
-
✔ Label:
gall bladder
6.
J-shaped organ below the liver:
- This is the
stomach, where food is mixed with gastric juices.
-
✔ Label:
stomach
7.
Greenish organ behind the stomach (smaller than the liver):
- This is the
pancreas, which produces digestive enzymes and bicarbonate.
-
✔ Label:
pancreas
8.
Coiled pink tubes in the center of the abdomen:
- These are the
small intestine, where most nutrient absorption occurs.
-
✔ Label:
small intestine
9.
Outer brown tube surrounding the small intestine:
- This is the
large intestine, responsible for absorbing water and forming feces.
-
✔ Label:
large intestine
10.
Tube at the end of the large intestine leading to the anus:
- This is the
rectum, which stores feces before elimination.
-
✔ Label:
rectum

Final Answer (from top to bottom):
1.
Tongue
2.
Salivary glands
3.
Esophagus
4.
Liver
5.
Gall bladder
6.
Stomach
7.
Pancreas
8.
Small intestine
9.
Large intestine
10.
Rectum

Summary:
Each part has been correctly labeled using the provided word box. The digestive system starts at the mouth (tongue and salivary glands), continues through the esophagus, stomach, and intestines, with accessory organs like the liver, gall bladder, and pancreas aiding digestion.
✔ All labels match the correct anatomical structures.
