    • E.

      Liver

    Correct Answer
    D. Anus
    Explanation
    The correct answer is anus because it is the opening at the end of the digestive system through which feces are eliminated from the body. The appendix is a small pouch located at the beginning of the large intestine and is not directly involved in the elimination of waste. The gall bladder is responsible for storing and releasing bile, which aids in digestion. The stomach is a digestive organ where food is broken down and partially digested. The liver plays a role in detoxification and the production of bile, but it does not directly eliminate waste from the body.

      Liver

    Correct Answer
    A. Gall bladder
    Explanation
    The gall bladder is a small, sac-like organ located by the duodenum. Its main function is to store and release bile, which is produced by the liver. Bile helps in the digestion and absorption of fats in the small intestine. When food containing fat enters the small intestine, the gall bladder contracts and releases bile into the duodenum through the bile duct. This helps in the breakdown of fats and aids in their absorption.

    • C.

      Pancreas

    Correct Answer
    B. Mouth
    Explanation
    The mouth is the first part of the digestive system because it is where the process of digestion begins. Food enters the mouth and is broken down by the teeth and mixed with saliva, which contains enzymes that start the process of breaking down carbohydrates. From the mouth, the food then travels down the esophagus and into the stomach for further digestion. The pancreas, on the other hand, is an organ that produces digestive enzymes but is not the first part of the digestive system.
