The small intestine receives the stomach contents in a liquid form called effluent. Its primary function is to absorb nutrients from this liquid on its way to the large intestine. The main functions of the large intestine are to absorb water from the effluent as it passes through the large intestine, forming it into stool, and to become a "holding tank" until the stool is expelled from the body.
