Summary

Description
English: Drosophila melanogaster digestive tract. The gut is anatomically and functionally divided into three major regions: the foregut, midgut, and hindgut. The foregut includes the esophagus and crop, functioning in food storage and initial mechanical digestion. The midgut, the primary site for enzymatic digestion and nutrient absorption, is further subdivided into functional regions (R0–R5) based on differences in physiology, cell types, and microbial composition. Arrows indicate each functional regions (R0–R5), and different colors show subregions. The hindgut is involved in water reabsorption and waste excretion.
