GENERAL VIDEO ON THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM: • Anatomy of the DIGESTIVE SYSTEM. Review... The salivary glands are cluster-like formations located inside the walls surrounding the mouth, where they pour out, through small ducts, the product of their secretion, saliva, whose components act on the food bolus and intervene in the chewing and digestion of food. In fact, it is here where the digestion process begins, with the enzymes present in the saliva that mix with the food during chewing. There are multiple accessory glands, which are small in size and are found in the tongue and in the oral mucosa, and three main glands, which are the ones we are going to see today. The 3 are paired and autonomous organs and are: the parotid, submaxillary and sublingual. CONTACT.
