Answer: Tongue, teeth and salivary gland.

Explanation:

The tongue in the mouth helps in pushing the food towards teeth and also helps in crushing the food to form bolus.

The teeth present in the mouth helps in breaking the big food particles to the smaller food particles. The chewing and crushing of food helps in digestion as it breaks the food in smaller size.

The salivary gland releases enzymes that helps in the digestion of carbohydrates present in the food.

Flatworms are free-living or parasitic animals, with bilateral symmetry, triblastic and with no coelom. The correct answer is FLATWORMS.

<h3>What are the flatworms?</h3>

These are animals of variable size, going from a few millimeters to centimeters.

Flatworms are bilateral, acoelomated, and triblastic animals. The fact of being acoelomate means that they lack an internal cavity. Their whole body is solid, having mesenchyme where different organs are located.

Sense organs are located in the anterior part of the body.

These animals are hermaphrodites, exhibiting cross reproduction and eventually autofecundation.

They might be free-living animals or parasitic.
