The large intestine removes water from mostly digested foods.
The vast majority of the water that enters the large intestine is absorbed by the lining of the intestine into the circulation. Approximately 2 litres of water enters the large intestine every day. 90-95% of it is absorbed.
By the large and small intestine. The feces are formed in the large intestine, these are undigested foods.
Water from food is absorbed by the body
the unabsorbed food in the small intestine passes through the ileocecal valve to the large intestine where, after the last few nutrients and fluids are reabsorbed, it is defecated.
The large intestine
The large intestine is attached to the posterior to the small intestine and as you maybe already know the small intestine is where food wastes go and bile is secreted into. The large intestine reabsorbs water from the ingested food particles before they enter the rectum and colon for excretion.
Through the small intestine
When the food is in the large intestine, the majority of the remaining water is absorbed into the blood stream. It then passes into the rectum and anal canal, where it is excreted through the anus.
