The lenght of a small intestine realates to its function and purpose. The finction of the small intestine is o transport foos throught the body. It os also to transport all nutrients from the food through the body to provide energy all around the body. The small intestine has to be long to be able to go through all the body and deliver all nutrients and energy for the body. It is also needed to be able to process all the food correctly and help do the full digestive system.
an animal's small intestine is about 3.5 the size of its own length
No. The small intestine is.
It has no purpose.
The two parts are the small intestine and the thin intestine
The frogs intestine is 28 inches in length
Since the small intestine helps absorb nutrients and calories from digested food, the small intestine needs to be long enough so it can go through full digestion.Because Sarah H. told me the large intestine is better

In a frog the first part of the small intestine is called duodenum. The second part is called the ileum. The small intestine leads to the large intestine.
Absorb nutrients.
Absorb nutrients.
In frogs, the small intestine is relatively long compared to the large intestine, reflecting its role in nutrient absorption. The extended length of the small intestine allows for a greater surface area, facilitating efficient digestion and absorption of nutrients from food. In contrast, the large intestine is shorter, primarily involved in water absorption and the formation of feces, as frogs primarily rely on their small intestine for nutrient uptake. This adaptation supports their dietary needs and digestive efficiency.
It gives the frog more surface area for absorption of nutrients so that it could be healthier and stronger.
