The correct option is B

Digestive system


Digestive system in human beings consists of alimentary canals and their associative glands. These associative glands include salivary glands, liver and pancreas. Salivary glands secrete an enyme known as salivary amylase which help in the process of digestion by breaking down food that enters the mouth.
