How does the large intestine look different from small intestine?
The small intestine is longer than the large intestine, although it has a smaller width. The small intestine is between the the stomach and and the large intestine. The large intestine is the last part of the digestive system.The Large intestine absorbs water, nutrients and salts. The small intestine absorbs carbohydrates, protein, fats, minerals and vitamins.Small intestine has finger-like projections (called villi) while these are absent in large intestine.ANS2:Small intestine helps in digestion and absorption of food while large intestine helps in reabsorption of food and elimination of wastes. ANS3:The small intestine is only small in its diameter. In herbivores, the small intestine may be around ten times longer than the large intestine. The small intestine is where the villi-covered walls absorb nutrients from the digested food. Once the nutrients are removed, the waste enters the large intestine where the water is removed and the waste is consolidated. The origin of the following quote is linked: The small intestine in adults is a long and narrow tube about 7 meters (23 feet) long. The large intestine is so called because it is wide in diameter. However, it is shorter than the small intestine - only about 1.5 meters (5 feet) long.The small intestine is responsible for nutrient uptake, the large intestine is responsible for fluid uptake.Small intestine contains digest food and absorbs the nutrients from it. The large intestine contains food waste.The small intestine is longer than the large intestine, but it has a smaller width than the large intestine.The inside of the small intestine is covered in villi (making the interior look bumpy), but the inside of the large intestine is smooth.the small intestine finishes the brake down of the substance you consume and has villi which absorb simple nutrients such as amino acids, simple sugars and fatty acids. Then they are picked up by capillaries in the villi and transported throughout the body. On the other hand, the large intestine just transport the waste to the rectum and absorbs water.well, the small intestine breaks down food and passes the nutrient to the blood vessels and the large intestine eliminates all the wasteThe majority of digestion takes place in the small intestine, while the large intestine absorbs water from the remaining indigestible food and sends it out of the body.Also, the small intestine is longer, but has a thinner diameter than the large intestine, which is shorter but wider.

What is the passage way from the small intestine to the large intestine?
The small intestine has three parts -- duodenum, jejunum and ileum. The ileum, being the last part of the small intestine, is the section that empties chyme into the beginning of the large intestine, which is the cecum. Chyme is released from the ileum through the ileocecal valve, a sphincter muscle, and into the cecum. I suggest you look at online or textbook illustrations of the gastrointestinal tract to see what this looks like.
What is the difference between small and large cell cancer?
My husband was just diagnosed with secondary liver cancer. I would like to know what is the difference between small cell and larger cell cancer. This is refering to small cell and large cell lung cancer, so I don't know how helpful it'll be: Small cell lung cancer is called this because the cancer cells are small cells that are mostly filled with the nucleus. Small cell cancer spreads early on, so radiotherapy, rather than surgery, is suggested. Large cell lung cancer is called this because the cells look large and rounded. This type of cancer spreads more quickly. source: http://www.cancerhelp.org.uk/type/lung-cancer/about/types-of-lung-cancer#large

Intestinal obstruction repair - series?
Normal anatomyThe intestine is made up of the small intestine and the large intestine (colon). The small intestine runs from the stomach to the large intestine. The colon runs from the end of the small intestine to the anus. The intestine absorbs nutrients and water from the diet.Indication, part 1Obstruction of the intestine occurs when food and water cannot pass through the intestine. The area of intestine nearest to the obstruction becomes dilated and non-functioning. If the obstruction is not relieved, it can lead to intestinal gangrene and perforation.Indication, part 2The most common causes of intestinal obstruction in adults are adhesions, hernias, and colon cancer. Adhesions are scars that form between loops of intestine, usually caused by prior surgery, which causes such scar formation. Hernias are areas of weakness in the abdominal wall, through which loops of intestine can slip and become trapped. Colon cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer. While each reason for intestinal obstruction requires a different treatment, all intestinal obstructions are potentially life-threatening.IncisionIn most cases, surgery is necessary. While the patient is deep asleep and pain-free (general anesthesia), an incision is made in the midline of the abdomen. In the case of adhesions, the adhesion is removed, thus relieving the obstruction. In the case of a hernia, the hernia is repaired. If colon cancer is present, cancerous areas are removed, which also relieves the obstruction. .ProcedureIn all cases, the intestine involved in the obstruction is examined. If any parts of the intestine look unhealthy from lack of blood flow during the period of obstruction, they are removed and the healthy ends are reconnected. A patient's recovery depends on several factors, including the cause of the intestinal obstruction and the length of time prior to relief of the obstruction.Reviewed ByReview Date: 05/17/2010Shabir Bhimji, MD, PhD, Specializing in Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery, Midland, TX.
