A diagram of the human digestive system is shown below. Removing which organ would have the smallest impact on digestion, absorption, and elimination? (Assume the system will remain connected if a large organ is removed.)
A. Esophagus
B. Stomach
C. Small intestine
D. Large intestine

In a hypothetical situation in which an organ could be removed from the digestive system, the one that would have the least impact on digestion, absorption, and elimination is the esophagus.

The esophagus is the name of an organ of the digestive system of living beings. The esophagus is a tube that measures about 25 centimeters, which connects the pharynx with the stomach, so its main function is that of a conduit for food to get there.

According to the above, the correct answer is A. because the esophagus is only a conduit, while the stomach and the intestines (large and small) have important functions in the process of digestion, absorption, and elimination.
