The large intestine, or colon, is generally larger in adults than in babies. In infants, the digestive system is still developing, and their large intestine is proportionally smaller compared to their overall body size. As a child grows, the large intestine matures and increases in size to accommodate the increased dietary needs of an adult. Thus, the large intestine of an adult is significantly larger than that of a baby.
