There is a lever on the back side of the flush handle. When you push the handle, the lever raises a chain or strap that is connected to the flapper. This opens and allows the water from the tank to go into the bowl. When the tank is almost empty, the flapper closes and the fill-valve starts filling the tank again. There is a ball and arm or some type float on the fill-valve that stops the water flow when the proper level is reached. In the base of the toilet is a built-in trap. looks just like the "U" pipe under sinks. This holds water in the bowl and makes a seal so sewer gases do not enter the house.

Water is stored in on the vertical part of the toilets. When you press to flush, it releases the water and everything goes in the sewers
