Where does the small intestine stop?

What structures controls the passage of materials from the small intestine to the large intestine?
The iliocecal sphincterThe ileum is the last (and longest) portion of small intestine. It empties into into the cecum (the first part of the "large intestine") at the iliocecal junction. The iliocecal sphincter is a ring of invountary smooth muscle at this junction, controlling the passage of digestive contents from the small intestine to the large intestine.
What sphincter prevents food to move from large intestine to the small intestine?
The large intestine begins at the ileocecal junction and extends to the anus. The ileocecal junction contains a muscular ring called the ileocecal sphincter, which prevents the backflow of wastes from the large intestine into the small intestine.
What is the small blind ended tissue located at the junction of small plus large intestine?

Where does chyme enter the large intestine through?
Chyme enters the large intestine through the ileocecal valve, which is located at the junction of the small intestine (ileum) and the large intestine (cecum). This valve helps regulate the flow of chyme and prevents backflow into the small intestine. Once in the large intestine, chyme is converted into feces through water absorption and fermentation of undigested materials.
What muscle is located between the small intestine and the large intestine?
