The Small Intestine is a complex, yet simple digestive organ. It likes to consume your food because it said, 'Excuse me.. May I have some of that?".. Yeah, Nek Minute, forty three fobs rock up with pocket knives ghee. oGAT!
The size of the small intestine makes it well suited for absorption of food nutrients. First, it is quite long, averaging about 10 ft t0 17 ft, depending on the height of the person it is in. That gives nutrients a long time to absorb, and a lot of surface area to absorb with.
Also, the small intestine is lined with thousands of tiny fingers, giving it a feel similar to velvet. These tiny fingers, called 'Villi' (VILL ee eye) provide a huge increase in the surface area to absorb nutrients with.
The villi increase the surface area enabling digested food to be
absorbed faster.

In the small intestine
digestive system throw the waste and dirt from the body and nutrients enters the circulatory system through capillaries.
Absorption is the process that allows food to move from the small intestine to the blood stream. Absorption is critical because it allows the nutrients to be used by cells throughout the body.
The uptake of nutrients by villi in the small intestine is known as absorption. This process allows nutrients to move into the circulatory system.
The small intestine is the site of most chemical digestion and absorption in the digestive tract. During absorption, nutrients enter the bloodstream, and the circulatory system can then transport these nutrients to all body cells.
Absorption is the process that takes nutrients through the small intestine wall. These nutrients then enter the circulatory system, which carries the nutrients to all body cells.
The circulatory system is responsible for transporting essential nutrients throughout the body. It picks up the nutrients from the small intestine and large intestine, and brings the nutrients to cells in the body.
The large
blah blah blah.
The small intestine is responsible for the absorption of nutrients.
