large intestine (colon)
small intestine, and water absorption occurs in the colon/large intestine
The small intestine is part of the digestive tract or gut. It is where most of the digestion and absorption of nutrients from food occurs.
The small intestine, or the duodenum, is where most absorption of nutrients occur.
Most of digestion occurs in the stomach and most absorption occurs in the small intestine.
large intestine
90% of the digestion and absorption of food occurs in the small intestine.
Absorption of digested foodstuffs occurs in the small intestine.
The small intestine is where most of the absorption of nutritients occurs.
Eighty percent of nutrient absorption occurs in the small intestine. The other 20% occurs in the stomach tissues.
False. Most absorption of nutrients occurs in the small intestine, specifically in the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. The large intestine primarily absorbs water and electrolytes, but not significant amounts of nutrients.
The ileum is a part of the digestive system. It is the final section of the small intestine where absorption of nutrients from digested food occurs before it passes to the large intestine.
Most digestion and absorption takes place in the small intestine.Initial and substantial digestion takes place in the stomach, before being completed in the upper part (duodenum) of the small intestine. The middle part of the small intestine (jejunum) is where most absorption of nutrients occurs, with the remainder done in the final part (ileum), and in the large intestine.
