Microvilli, villi, plicae circulares, if choosing just one i would go with microvilli because the tremendously increase the surface area for absorption in the absorptive cell

Villi are part of the structure of the?

Villi are part of the structure of the small intestine(ileum). They help increase surface area for absorption of nutrients.


In which structure does most of the absorption of nutrients occur?

Most of the absorption of nutrients occurs in the small intestine. The inner surface of the small intestine is lined with finger-like projections called villi, which increase the surface area available for absorption. This is where the majority of nutrients from food are absorbed into the bloodstream.


The villi of the small intestine allow for an increase in the rate of?

absorption of nutrients by increasing the surface area available for absorption. This increased surface area allows for more efficient absorption of nutrients from the digested food passing through the small intestine.


What structure helps increase the surface area available for absorption?

The intestinal wall has invaginations (or dips) that have a much larger surface ares compared to a simple tube


What might be the advantage of the folds and coils of the small intestines?

slows down the passage of the food slomg the intestines, and afford an increased surface for absorption. Increase the surface area for the intestines to increase absorption of nutrients


What structure provides a large surface are for absorption in the ileum?

The ileum has finger-like projections called villi that increase its surface area for absorption. Each villus contains even smaller structures called microvilli, further enhancing the absorption capacity of the ileum. This large surface area allows for efficient absorption of nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and enzymes.


Tiny projections which line the small intestine and function to increase the surface area and thus increase absorption rate are known as?

Villi are tiny projections that line the small intestine and increase the surface area for absorption of nutrients. They contain blood vessels and lacteals to absorb nutrients and transport them to the bloodstream.


How do villi of the small intestine increase the rate of nutrients absorption?

By increasing the surface area of the intestinal wall.


In the earthworm what is the function of the typhlosole?

increase intestine surface area for more efficent absorption of digested nutrients


Which part of the digestive system contains structural adaptations called villi that increase the surface area for the absorption of nutrients?

No


What is the organ that has villi to absorb the nutrients?

The small intestine has villi to absorb nutrients. Villi are small projections that increase the possible surface area for absorption.


What is the function of the typhlosole on a earthworm?

The typhlosole is a fold in the intestinal wall of an earthworm that increases the surface area for absorption of nutrients. It helps in the digestion and absorption of food in earthworms by providing more surface area for enzymes to break down food particles and for nutrients to be absorbed.
