Digestive System The digestive system which is about 9 meters long consists of the alimen‑ tary canal and related or accessory organs. The alimentary canal is formed by the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine and anus. The accessory structures are the teeth, the tongue, salivary glands, hard and soft palates, the liver, the gallbladder, and the pancreas. The alimentary tract from the esophagus to the rectum conforms to a definit structural plan. The layers from within outward are mucous, submu‑ cous, muscular and serous. In the esophagus the serous layer is lacking and outer coat is fbrous in nature. The organs of the digestive system that are contained in the abdomen are covered with the serous coat – the peritoneum. The peritoneum has two layers, the visceral and parietal.
