Colon cancer is a type of cancer that occurs in the large intestine (colon), which is the final part of the digestive tract12. The large intestine is about 5 feet long and absorbs water and salt from the food that passes through it. The small intestine, also called the small bowel, is a long tube that connects the stomach and the large intestine. It is about 20 feet long and is responsible for digesting and absorbing nutrients from the food that enters it. Cancer of the small intestine is much less common than cancer of the large intestine. There are different types of small bowel cancer, such as adenocarcinoma, neuroendocrine tumors, lymphoma, and sarcoma. Therefore, colon cancer occurs most often in the large intestine, not the small intestine.
75 feet. Simple as that.
Four features of the small intestine make it efficient at absorption of digested food: 1. The small intestine is LONG- this ensures food remains in the small intestine long enough for the products of digestion to be fully absorbed into the bloodstrem. 2. The Small intestine is HIGHLY FOLDED into villi (s. villus)- This gives a greater surface area for more efficient diffusion of products into the bloodstream. 3. The small intestine has a RICH BLOOD SUPPLY - Each villus has a network of capillaries so that the products of digestion are carried away from the small intestine efficiently. 4. The epithelium of the small intestine in the villi is only ONE CELL THICK - for easier diffusion of the products of digestion into the bloodstream. The walls of the capillaries are only one cell thick as well!!
