Villi are finger-like projections in the small intestine that increase its surface area for nutrient absorption. Bile is a digestive fluid produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder, which helps in the breakdown of fats in the small intestine. Villi aid in nutrient absorption, while bile aids in fat digestion.
What else can I help you with?
What relationship exists between villi and microvilli?
Yes. A villi is a fingerlike structure in a small intestine that absorbes the nutrition from the food you ate. A microvilli is basically a villi on a villi which is what actually does the absorbing
Fingerlike projections in the intestines that absorb food?
-Villi The first answer is correct in the villi are very small finger like projections in the intestines but I would suspect the question refers to the appendix.
What are the tiny fingerlike projections inside the small intestine called?
The finger like projections that line the small intestine are called, Villi.
What is the relationship between the liver and the gallbladder?
The liver produces bile, which is stored in the gallbladder. When needed, the gallbladder releases bile into the small intestine to help with the digestion and absorption of fats. The gallbladder acts as a reservoir for bile produced by the liver.
What are tiny fingerlike projections that cover the folds of the small intestines?
The tiny fingerlike projections that cover the folds of the small intestine are called villi. Villi increase the surface area of the small intestine, allowing for more efficient absorption of nutrients from digested food.
What are the 2 systems villi are linked between?
Villi are linked between the digestive systme and excretory system.
How does bile help the digestion of milk?
Bile emulsifies the fat so it can be broken down further by pancreatic lipase. The resulting tiny droplets are then absorbed by the lacteals in the intestinal villi and carried throughout the body by the lymphatic system.
What is the difference between rugae and villi?
the rugae is found in the stomach. The villi is in the lining of the small intestines.
Are villi present in the duodenum jejunum ileum?
Yes, villi are present in all three. Small soluble food molecules broken down by enzymes in bile (which is released in the ileum) are absorbed by the villi in the ileum. Water molecules are absorbed by villi in the duodenum (large intestines) by active transport - not osmosis, against a concentration gradient.
What is the difference between the liver bile and gall bladder bile?
The bile from the liver is not as concentrated as the bile that has been stored in the gall bladder.
When does bile enter the gallbladder?
Bile enters the gallbladder between meals
What organs secrete substances into the small intestine and what do they secrete?
well the villi are on the walls of the small intestine and they secrete pancreatic juice, made from the pancreas.
What is Bile pH level?
The hepatic Bile has a pH of about 7.4 and the Bladder bile has a pH of about 6.8. On an average the pH of bile juice is between 6.8 and 7.6.
What is the difference between villi villus and villous?
there isnt
What relationship exist between bile and gall bladder?
Bile is stored in the gall bladder.
Where is the enzyme screted and what does it digest fats into?
the enzyme that is secreted is lipase. lipase is secreted in the pancreas where it is moved into the duodenum through the common bile duct. lipase is also secreted by the intestinal walls of the small intestine.there are funger like projections called villi. between 2 villi there are glandular pits where the succus entericus is secreted.lipase is in the succus entericus along with other enzymes. lipase converts fats into fatty acids and glycerol.
What relationship exists between villi and microvilli?
Yes. A villi is a fingerlike structure in a small intestine that absorbes the nutrition from the food you ate. A microvilli is basically a villi on a villi which is what actually does the absorbing
