CuttleFish Digestive System
The digestive system of a cuttlefish begins with its beak, which crushes the food it consumes. Then, the food particles go into the move and through the esophagus, much like a human. From the esophagus, the food enters the stomach and passes into the intestines (eventually) where the food is digested. Finally food passes through the anus into the mantle cavity, which functions as a locomotory organ (allows the cuttlefish to move).
