What else can I help you with?
Villi are present in small intestine why?
Vili are present to increase the surface area of the small intestine. This allows more digestion to happen in the small intestine.
What is them in the role of the villi in the small intestine?
to increase the surface area of the intestine in order to absorb as much nutrients as possible during digestion.
How thousands of folds and sub-folds in the small intestine help in digestion?
It increases the surface area available for absorption of digestion nutrients.
What is typhosole of an earthworm?
The typhosole of an earth worm is the mid-dorsal groove of the intestine. It is folded and functions to increase the surface area of the intestine to aid in digestion.
Who does the villi enable the small intestine to carry out its funcation?
It vastly increases the surface area of the intestine allow much more rapid and successful digestion.
How are the mucosa and sub-mucosa of the small intestine adapted for both digestion and absorption?
large surface area
What is the advantage of th spiral valve in the shark's intestine?
It ads surface area helping the digestion and absorption
How does the length of the small intestine assist the digestion?
the lengthb increase the surface area so that it can better absorb nutrients
Where are digested foods absorbed?
The digestion first starts in the mouth and the food is absorbed in the small intestine, and the water and minerals go to your large intestine:)learned this in biology, last week =)
Where does most of the chemical digestion take place in humans?
It is the Duodenum!Actually, most chemical digestion, in humans, takes place in the small intestine.Chemical digestion takes place in the small intestine, the stomach and the mouth.
Small intestine in herbivores and carnivores?
In herbivores, the small intestine is longer and more complex to aid in the digestion of plant material, which requires more time and surface area for absorption of nutrients. In contrast, carnivores have a shorter and simpler small intestine because the digestion of meat is more straightforward and requires less time and surface area for absorption of nutrients.
What process increases the surface area of foods prior to chemical digestion?
Mechanical digestion is the process that increases the surface area of foods prior to chemical digestion. This process involves chewing, churning in the stomach, and segmentation in the small intestine to physically break down food into smaller pieces, allowing enzymes to work more efficiently.
