Question

This organ of digestive system receives food from the esophagus and it is located in the upper left quadrant of the abdomen. It is divided into the fundic, cardiac body, and pyloric regions. A. Esophagus B. Stomach C. Pharynx D. Mouth

Answer 1

The correct answer is **B. Stomach**.Here's why:* **Stomach location and regions:** The stomach is indeed located in the upper left quadrant of the abdomen and is divided into the fundus, cardia, body, and pylorus (pyloric region). It receives food directly from the esophagus.* **Esophagus:** The esophagus is the tube that *connects* the mouth and pharynx to the stomach. It doesn't receive food from itself.* **Pharynx:** The pharynx is part of the throat and is involved in both swallowing and breathing. It's located above the esophagus.* **Mouth:** The mouth is the beginning of the digestive tract where food enters the body, but it's not where food goes after the esophagus.
