Bile and pancreatic enzymes act upon chyme in the duodenum to break food up into there respective monomers. Those are then absorbed through the lining of the small intestine. The nutrients that can be absorbed are absorbed by the end of the small intestine. The large intestine primarily reabsorbs water and forms feces.
