What else can I help you with?
The process in which blood capillaries pick up digested nutrients is?
absorption
What is the function of the typhosole?
Its function is to increase intestine surface area for more efficient absorption of digested nutrients. In different earthworm families, the typhlosole appears to have multiple origins.
In the earthworm what is the function of the typhlosole?
increase intestine surface area for more efficent absorption of digested nutrients
Is digested food absorbed through the wall of the gut to the stomach?
Some absorption also happens there however, most of the absorption of nutrients happens in the small intestines with the help of the many enzymes to break down the food that is digested by the stomach.
What happens to digested food after absorption?
Food is digested in the stomach, and this digestion continues to some degree in the small intestine. But it is largely in the small intestine that the nutrients are absorbed from the stream of digested materials. Anything not absorbed continues on to the large intestine for water extraction and further on to excrement.
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 is the Process by which digested food are passed into different parts of a plant or animal?
Absorption
What is 'assimilation'?
Assimilation is the use of digested and absorbed materials to make new body parts.
Where in the body does absorption of food take place?
The lumen is the cavity where digested food passes through and from where nutrients are absorbed, in the small intestine.
What is the function of the villie for absorption?
Villi in the intestines increase the surface area for absorption of nutrients from digested food. They contain blood vessels and lacteals that help transport the absorbed nutrients to the bloodstream.
How is the digested food transported?
The nutrients are taken out of the food while it is being digested, and going into your bloodstream, which flows around your body and feeds the nutrients to different parts of your body.
Cells with large numbers of microvilli on their apical surface are probably involved in?
absorption of nutrients, because microvilli increase the surface area available for absorption. These cells are commonly found in the small intestine to facilitate the absorption of essential nutrients from digested food.
