Which part of the alimentary canal does absorption takes place?
Icestorm5gh
In humans absorption takes place in the small intestines. In the small intestines are tiny structures called villi. Each villi has microvilli. These villi increase the surface area for absorption. Inside a microvilli, there is a network of capillaries and lacteals. Lacteals absorb amino acids and transport it to the liver via the subclavian vein which leads into the back of the neck, from there it gets distributed to the rest of the body. Back to the microvilli. The microvilli contains capillaries which absorb fatty acids and glycerols. These are transported to the liver via the heptic portal vein.
