The rectum serves as the final section of the large intestine, where it stores feces until they are ready to be expelled. When the rectum fills, stretch receptors signal the brain, creating the urge to defecate. During this process, the anal sphincters relax, allowing the feces to exit the body through the anus. This coordinated action ensures the controlled release of waste.
