How do birds digest their food in the absence of teeth?
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

They have a gizzard to grind the food.

Explanation:

Birds cannot chew since they have no teeth. However, the beak allows them to split very large seeds or swallow them directly.

For their digestion they have a stomach where digestion enzymes are released. Also they have a gizzard that is an organ that grinds the food mechanically. This gizzard usually has small stones inside that were previously ingested and that helps to digest the food.
