Small intestine consists of three main parts.
It helps in digestion of food.the acidity of chyme in intestine stimulates the release of secretions from pancreas and liver in duodenum along with the secretions of duodenal cells.
it digests starch into maltose
it hydrolyzes a smalls amount of fats into fatty acid and glycerol.
it spilts proteins into peptones and polypeptides.
it neutralizes the acidity of chyme
2.liver secretes bile which is a green watery fluid.It contains no enzymes.It contains BILE SALTS which helps in Emulsification
"Emulsification is the coversion of fatty acids
into diffuseable globular droplets
that can be absorbed onto the blood"
3.Duodenal cells release mucus.
Function Of Jejunum:The undigested food which escapes from duodenum to jejunum is digested by a group of following enzymes present in jejunum.
It converts polypeptides into dipeptides
It digest dipeptides into Amino acids
It digests maltose into glucose.
It digests lactose into glucoes and galactose.
coverts fats into fatty acids and glycerol.
Function Of Ileum:All digested food is absorbed by ileum.It contains microscopic Villi which are responsible of assimilation of food.At the end of ileum,there is an ileocolic sphincter that opens and closes at time to allow the enterence of undigested food onto the caecum of large intestine.
The function of small intestine to chicken is no because chicken doesn't have a small intestine
The two parts are the small intestine and the thin intestine
The stomach and small intestine both help with digestion. However, the stomach breaks down the food with acids and is mostly a large cavity, while the small intestine absorbs the nutrients and is a long winding path.
The small intestine is the part of the gastrointestinal tract between the stomach and large intestine. The three parts that make up the small intestine are the duodenum, the jejunum, and ileum.
The function of the small intestine is to break down foods and the function of the large intestine is to clean out the food that are not absorbed as wastes.

The function of the small intestine is to abosorb nutrients into the blood stream using villi which are small finger like projections
The small intestine doesn't usually get sucked into the large intestine, but parts of the small intestine can telescope into itself. This is called intussusception.
the small intestine is a long tube in which more digestive juices are breaking down the food.Digestion is completed in the small intestine.
