What are villi and what is their job?
Villi are tiny finger-like projections which line the small intestine. Villi are perfect for absorbing food into the blood because: 1) They have a very thin outer layer of cells 2) They have a good blood supply 3) They provide a large surface area for absorption
How are the small intestines adapted for diffusion?
- The small intestine needs a large surface area as it is adapted for absorbing nutrients from food that the body needs. - The small intestine has villi, which increase the overall surface area, maximizing the area available for absorbing nutrients. - The villi have very good blood supplies, as they each have a capillary in them, so when substances are diffused they go straight into the blood stream. Just like the alveoli in the lungs, the epithelium is only one cell thick meaning that there is less distance for the nutrients to diffuse across. I think there might be more information about this on the BBC Bitesize website, but in the meantime I hope this helps
