Which of these odd-sounding parts of the gastrointestinal system is the uppermost part of the intestines?
Answer Duodenum
Food that you eat enters the small intestine from the stomach through the duodenum, which is the uppermost part of the intestinal tract. It makes up about one-fifth of the total length of the organ, and then the duodenum receives partially digested food and further breaks it down.
