Answer 1

The correct option is C Mouth $\to$ Oesophagus $\to$ Stomach$\to$ Small Intestine $\to$ Large Intestine $\to$ Anus

$\bullet$ Mouth is the first part of digestive tract. Digestion starts here as soon as you take the food. Chewing breaks the food into small pieces.
$\bullet$ Food then moves into oesophagus which pushes the food towards the sac like structure called stomach.
$\bullet$ Stomach acts like a mixer and breaks the complex food substances.
$\bullet$ From here the food moves to the small intestine, where most of the absorbtion of food occurs.
$\bullet$ From small intestine the undigested materials move into the large intestine, where the absorbtion of water, salts and minerals occurs.
$\bullet$ Further the undigested materials are removed by the large intestine from the body through the anus.
