Are finger like projections of the mucosa?
Villi. Most absorbtion occurs in the ileum btw.
Hairline projections within the small intestine?
Villi, to increase the surface area for absorption.
What are tiny fingerlike projections that cover the folds of the small intestines?
Villi. Also the Villi are covered in Micro-villi - just the same but smaller. The function of them is to increase surface area for absorption.
How do the finger like structures relate to the function of the small intestine?
If you mean the hairs on the cells they are villi and micro-villi
What is the organ that has villi to absorb the nutrients?
The small intestine has villi to absorb nutrients. Villi are small projections that increase the possible surface area for absorption.
What structurs increase the surface area in the small intestine?
the villi or villus or microvillus or microvilli or muscosal villi
How does the composition of blood changes as it flows through the villi?
The blood flow in through the villi changes in an increase as the intestine near the villi is wide to go through.
What is the villi function?
Increase surface area for food
What is the purpose of villi in living cells?
villi are present to increase the surface area of cell for maximum absorbance of nutrients
What is diffusion in the villi?
Same as anywhere else on the cell. The function of the villi is to increase the surface area, and thus the rate of diffusion.
What is the function of the ville?
All villi increase surface area.
How do villi help to increase the absorption of digested food into the bloodstream?
The villi is found in the inner wall of the small intestine , it is covered with many finger like folds( Villi). The villi absorbs more digested food and is absorbed to the bloodstream.
