No, water is primarily absorbed in the small intestine, not the large intestine. The large intestine mainly absorbs electrolytes and some remaining water from the indigestible food matter.
The large intestine is attached to the posterior to the small intestine and as you maybe already know the small intestine is where food wastes go and bile is secreted into. The large intestine reabsorbs water from the ingested food particles before they enter the rectum and colon for excretion.
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 short wide tube in which water is absorbed from undigested food is the colon, also known as the large intestine. In the colon, water and electrolytes are absorbed from the indigestible food remnants, helping to form solid waste (feces) before it is eliminated from the body.
After the mouth, food travels down the esophagus to the stomach. From there, it moves to the small intestine where nutrients are absorbed, and then to the large intestine where water is absorbed before waste is excreted.
After passing through the small intestine, digested food moves into the large intestine (also known as the colon). In the large intestine, water is absorbed and the remaining waste material is formed into feces before being expelled from the body through the rectum and anus during a bowel movement.

The primary function of the large intestine is to absorb any water and ions that have not been absorbed previously in the small intestine.
The vast majority of the water that enters the large intestine is absorbed by the lining of the intestine into the circulation. Approximately 2 litres of water enters the large intestine every day. 90-95% of it is absorbed.
The Kidney.definitely not the large intestine or colon.
The small intestine absorbs nutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, while the large intestine absorbs water and electrolytes. Examples of nutrients absorbed in the small intestine include glucose, amino acids, and fatty acids, while water and electrolytes like sodium and potassium are absorbed in the large intestine.
