The short, wide tube at the end of the intestine that serves no significant purpose is known as the appendix. It is a small, finger-like pouch attached to the cecum, which is the beginning of the large intestine. While its exact function is still debated, it is widely considered a vestigial organ, meaning it has lost its original function through evolution. In some cases, the appendix can become inflamed, leading to a condition known as appendicitis, which may require surgical removal.
