3 mm is considered diminutive, ie small. Something that is 1 cm (ie 10 mm) or more is large.
a 10mm polyp is less than a half inch in diameter. Whether that is considered small or large depends on its location.
Not necessarily. A sessile polyp is a type of growth on the lining of the colon that is usually noncancerous. However, some sessile polyps can develop into cancer if left untreated or if they exhibit certain characteristics. It is important to have regular screenings and follow-up with your healthcare provider to monitor and address any polyps found during colonoscopies.

Undigested material goes to the large intestine, toward the rectal area.
A 1.3 centimeter polyp is relatively small and may appear as a raised, rounded growth on the surface of an organ, such as the colon. It can vary in color, often being pink, red, or slightly darker, and may have a smooth or slightly textured surface. Depending on its type, a polyp can be pedunculated (with a stalk) or sessile (flat against the tissue). While many polyps are asymptomatic, they can be detected during medical imaging or procedures like a colonoscopy.
A cecal polyp is a growth that develops in the cecum, which is a part of the large intestine located near the appendix. These polyps are usually benign, but they can sometimes become cancerous if left untreated. Cecal polyps are typically detected during a colonoscopy and may require removal to prevent complications.

An adult feather star is not sessile. It eventually develops arms and is able to move around. Sea lilies are sessile.

The small intestine- duodenum, jejuneum, and ileum.
A diverticulum is a small pouch that can become a polyp or diverticulitis, inflammation of the intestine.
Sessile animals, such as corals and barnacles, often rely on filter feeding to capture plankton and other small particles from the water around them. Some sessile animals also have symbiotic relationships with algae or bacteria that provide them with nutrients through photosynthesis or other metabolic processes.
