Answer:

The small intestine

Step-by-step explanation:

The muscles of the small intestine mix food with digestive juices from the pancreas, liver, and intestine and push the mixture forward to continue the digestion process. The walls of the small intestine absorb water and digested nutrients into the bloodstream.
