  • Card 13 / 47:
    How do birds digest their food in the absence of teeth?

    Birds have a stomach chamber called a gizzard. Here, the food is stored, soaked, and ground into finer particles, often using pebbles. Once this process is complete, the digestive juices take over in the proventriculus and continue the digestive process.
