Answer:

Saliva lubricates and moistens these food particles

Step-by-step explanation:

As teeth help to break down large pieces of food into lots of smaller pieces, saliva is released and mixes with the smaller food pieces. Saliva lubricates and moistens these food particles such that a ball-like mixture of food and saliva that is known as a bolus is formed, which can then be easily swallowed.
