Answer:

Mouth and teeth is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The digestive system is made up of the gastrointestinal tract (or GI) and other organs such as the pancreas, the liver, and the ones mentioned in the question, like the stomach, small intestine and the mouth and teeth. These last two are in charge of breaking food down into smaller molecules.
