Solution

The correct options are
B Large Intestine
C Anus
D Oesophagus
In our digestive system, actual digestion takes place only in few parts such as mouth, stomach and small intestine. Remaining parts just aid the digestion process in the following ways:
  • Oesophagus - It's sole purpose is to transport food from the mouth to the stomach.
  • Large intestine - It absorbs water from the digested food and stores solid wastes.
  • Anus - An opening through which our body expels undigested wastes in the form of faeces.
