    The document summarizes key parts of the digestive system, including saliva, teeth, taste buds, and the structures of teeth. It also presents data from an experiment on the digestive system. Saliva contains 99.5% water and helps break down food through digestion before swallowing. Teeth further break down large pieces of food and have three layers: the pulp, cementum, and ligaments. Taste buds on the tongue help identify foods. The experiment measured factors like fluid secretions, pH levels, organ contractions, blood glucose, and strength of contractions under different conditions.
