Description

The mouth is the body orifice through which many animals ingest food and vocalize. The body cavity immediately behind the mouth opening, known as the oral cavity, is also the first part of the alimentary canal, which leads to the pharynx and the gullet. In tetrapod vertebrates, the mouth is bounded on the outside by the lips and cheeks — thus the oral cavity is also known as the buccal cavity — and contains the tongue on the inside. Except for some groups like birds and lissamphibians, vertebrates usually have teeth in their mouths, although some fish species have pharyngeal teeth instead of oral teeth.

வாய் உயிரினங்கள் உணவு, நீரினை உட்கொள்ளப் பயன்படும் உறுப்பாகும். எல்லாப் பாலூட்டிகளிலும் வாய் முகத்தில் அமைந்துள்ளது. பாலூட்டியல்லாத வேறு சில உயிரினங்களில் உடலின் வேறு பகுதிகளில் வாய் காணப்படுகிறது. சில உயிரினங்களில் குடல் இல்லாததால் வாயினூடாகவே கழிவுகள் வெளியேற்றப்படுகின்றன.
