∙ 13y agoWhat do you mean, like, what is the function of the large intestine? Well, the function is to remove water and salts (and some vitamins...) from what was formerly food and then to pass waste from the body via the anus. So, if someone's small intestine connected directly to their anus with no cecum or colon in between I suppose they would have very loose bowel movements (diarrhea) and would have no control over when they passed because waste passes right through the small intestine and is stored in the colon. Also said person may be more easily dehydrated. Also I can imagine if waste started to back up in the small intestine that'd be very bad. I am not an MD just a bio major so this is just a hypothesis from what I know about anatomy...

∙ 10y agoJejunum is where a lot of absorption of nutrients and water takes place, so if it stops working that means a lot of nutrients will end up not being absorbed. Jejunum also connects the duodenum to the ilium, so if its smooth muscles stop working, it can mean that nutrients are unable to pass to ilium.
