Explain the digestive system of Rabbit.

Explanation

Teeth are hard, bone-like structures used to cut, tear and grind the food materials. The digestive system includes the Alimentary canal and the associated digestive glands. The alimentary canal consists of mouth, buccal cavity, pharynx, oesophagus, stomach, small intestine and anus.
Mouth is a transverse slit, bounded by upper and lower lips. It leads to buccal cavity muscular tongue is at the floor of buccal cavity. Jaws bear teeth. Buccal cavity leads into Oesophagus. Oesophagus opens into the stomach followed by small intestine. The thin walled Sac, called Caecum, present at the Junction of small intestine and large intestine, contains bacteria, which helps in digestion of cellulose.
The digestive glands such as salivary glands, gastric glands, Liver, Pancreas and intestinal

glands secrete digestive juices, which help in the digestion of food in the Alimentary canal. After digestion, from the small intestine, the undigested food and wastes enter into large intestine, which has colon and rectum. The rectum opens outside by the Anus.
