Solution

The correct option is B Stomach
Stomach receives food from the food pipe. It is an important organ of the digestive tract. The major part of the digestion occurs here.
The liver is an organ shaped like a half-moon and is our body's largest solid organ. It is tilted in the body's cavity, with the left portion above the stomach.
The small intestine (small bowel) is about 20 feet long and about an inch in diameter. It's job is to absorb most of the nutrients from the food we eat and drink.
In human and most animals, the mouth is the first portion of the alimentary canal that receives food and produces saliva.
