The small intestine is lined with microscopic fingerlike strutcures called villi which increase the surface area of the small intestine fo absorption. The spaces between villi are like a sieve that absorb the food particles into the bloodstream.
There are three types of villi. Intestinal Villi which lines the intestines, Chorionic Villi which is on the outer most membrane of a fetus and Arachnoid Villi which is on the arachnoid membrane of the brain.
The structure of the villi are fold-like structures lining the wall of the small intestine.
Much of your body has villi, such as your large intestines, proximal convoluted tubule and even the trachea. It is meant to increase surface area or move materials in the body
The small intestine.
The three types of villi are: Intestinal villi-microscopic finger like projections on the inner surface of the ileum. Chorionic villi-villi on the outermost membrane of the foetus. Arachnoid villi-villi on the arachnoid membrane of the brain.

The inner vaginal wall is lined by stratified squamous epithelial cells. These cells are layered and flat in shape, which helps protect the vaginal wall from friction and damage.
villi
Villi on the wall of the small intestine absorb nutrients into the bloodstream.
villi
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.
These are called villi and there are millions of them that line the small intestine and large intestine (Colon) they absorb the nutrients particularly in the Colon where they absorb liquid into the blood stream. This is what makes your stools hard (constipation) and painful to pass if you wait too long to go for a number 2. The peristaltic action moves the liquid along the small and large intestines.

villi
Villi (singular villus) are finger-like structures that are found on the inner wall of small intestines. Villi function to absorb glucose, amino acids and water soluble vitamins by diffusion into the blood capillaries in the villi.
