How do you get rid of solid waste?

Food enters the stomach where acids break down the material. In the small intestine, the material has much more fluid and the body begins to move that fluid to the kidneys as further break-down occurs. By the time it reaches the large intestine, it becomes much more "formed". It passes through the colon, further through to the rectum where humans sense the pressure of a needed bowel movement. The BM then passes from the rectum and out the anus. Note that in diarrhea, changes occur in how much fluid can be drawn off and excreted via the urinary system. In profound diarrhea, the matter is mostly fluid mixed with some formed excrement.
