ileum = the third and lowest division of the small intestine
Actually The small intestine is not connected to the stomach. Between the stomach and the small intestine is the Duodendum. At the end of the small intestine the colon, or large intestine begins.
The last segment of the small intestine is the ileum. At the end of the ileum is the ileocecal valve.
the ileocecal valve is the end of the small intestine and beginning of the large intestine. Thus dividing the two.
The small intestine is connected to the stomach at one end and to the large intestine at the other end. Food from the stomach enters the small intestine for further digestion and absorption of nutrients before waste passes into the large intestine for eventual elimination from the body.

The terminal ileum. Just had a doctor tell me that.
it goes to the large intestine
Small intestine on one end and the anus on the other.
The small intestine absorbs the nutrients and passes the waste to the large intestine. The large intestine absorbs the moisture and some vitamins. The end of the large intestine, the rectum, is what excretes the waste.
The small intestine is connected to one side of the stomach, and on the other end, it is connected to the large intestine. The small intestine is responsible for further digestion and absorption of nutrients from food before passing the remaining waste to the large intestine for processing.
