The second loop of the small intestine is called the jejunum. It follows the duodenum and precedes the ileum. The jejunum is primarily responsible for the absorption of nutrients from digested food. It has a thicker wall and a greater vascular supply compared to the ileum, facilitating efficient nutrient uptake.

How many times can your small intestine go around the earth if you stretched it out?
If the small intestine were stretched out, it would measure about 20 to 25 feet long (approximately 6 to 7.5 meters). The Earth's circumference is about 24,901 miles (approximately 40,075 kilometers). Therefore, if you stretched out the small intestine, it could wrap around the Earth roughly 0.0004 times, which means it would not complete even a single full loop around the planet.
