Which structure is responsible for the absortion of nutrients from food?
The small intestine- micro-villi specifically in the small intestine. The micro-villi increases the surface area of the small intestine. which allows more food particles to enter the cells of the small intestine to digest.
What increases the surface área of the small intestine?
The surface is made up of many small wrinkled folds which increases the surface area.
Increases the surface area of the small intestine?

What is the reason for the Villi?
The villi increases the surface area for the small intestine.

What is one structure in the small intestine which acts to increase the surface area available?
villi
What is the name of the structure found in the inner layer of the small intestine?

The brush border is located in the?
The brush border is located on the surface of microvilli which are found on the apical surface of epithelial cells lining the small intestine and kidney tubules. It increases the surface area for absorption of nutrients and ions.
