The colon.
The structure that reabsorbs excess water and forms feces is the large intestine, or colon. As the contents pass through the colon, water is reabsorbed into the body, while the remaining waste is compacted into feces. The colon also plays a role in the fermentation of undigested materials and the absorption of certain vitamins. Ultimately, the feces are stored in the rectum before being expelled from the body.
The organ responsible for absorbing leftover water, vitamins, and electrolytes from food waste is the large intestine, or colon. As undigested food passes through the colon, it reabsorbs these nutrients and water, helping to form solid waste. This process is essential for maintaining the body's hydration and electrolyte balance.
Excess water is absorbed in the large intestine, specifically in the colon. The colon reabsorbs water from the undigested food material passing through it, helping to form solid waste (stool) before it is eliminated from the body.
The vacuole is responsible for storing water, undigested food, and waste products in a plant cell. In animal cells, waste products are stored in vesicles or lysosomes.
Large Intestine
The colon absorbs water from undigested food waste so that the waste can be excreted as feces.
what is the difference between undigested food and metabolic waste
The large intestine reabsorbs much of the water and any nutrients that would have been removed as waste.
The volume of the undigested food decreases as it passes through the large intestine. As the colon absorbs excess water from undigested food waste, the volume of that waste decreases.
The large intestines job is to compress materials. The undigested food and waste products are compressed in the large intestine before evacuation.
It absorbs water :) and that is pretty much itt :L :D
Excess water is removed from undigested food waste in the large intestine. This waste, called feces, is then stored in the rectum until expelled through the anus.
