There would be much less surface area for the digestion and absorption, so digestion and absorption would be slowed by a lot.

Within the Gastrointestinal tract of the human body
Water absorption takes place in the large intestine which is separated from the improperly digested food and sent to several parts of the body. . . That is a grade 7 answer because I am in grade 7.
Digestion is a chemical reaction that takes place in the body, starting from the mouth and ending in the small intestine. It is a long process taking place in a 9m long alimentary canal. Ingestion in the mouth is when the food is taken in, digestion when the food is broken down into simpler molecules, absorption when the digested food is absorbed by the blood, assimilation when the digested food is utilised by the the body and finally, egestion where the unwanted food is excreted out from the body, through the anus. With these processes, there are many other organs in the body which help digestion to take place, some being the liver, pancreas, stomach, small intestine.
