What else can I help you with?
Are finger like projections of the mucosa?
Villi. Most absorbtion occurs in the ileum btw.
What is the organ that has villi to absorb the nutrients?
The small intestine has villi to absorb nutrients. Villi are small projections that increase the possible surface area for absorption.
What is diffusion in the villi?
Same as anywhere else on the cell. The function of the villi is to increase the surface area, and thus the rate of diffusion.
What is the purpose of the villi and microville in the intestinal tract?
The villi and microvilli in the intestinal tract increase the surface area for absorption of nutrients from digested food. Villi are finger-like projections on the intestinal wall, while microvilli are smaller projections on the surface of cells within the villi. This increased surface area allows for more efficient absorption of nutrients into the bloodstream.
What increase the free surface area of epithelium that absorb substances?
Villi and microvilli.
What is the reason for the Villi?
The villi increases the surface area for the small intestine.
What structure in the small intestine increases its surface area?
Villi (might be mispelled). They're kind of like microscopic hairs that help absorb nutrients in the small intestine leading to a greater surface area.
What is the function of villi cells in the intestines?
the villi vastly increases the surface area for the absoption of food.
Hairline projections within the small intestine?
Villi, to increase the surface area for absorption.
Why are villi ideal for absorption?
They have a large surface area.
What structure helps increase the surface area available for absorption?
The intestinal wall has invaginations (or dips) that have a much larger surface ares compared to a simple tube
What form the large surface area of the small intestine?
The villi on the inner surface.
What structurs increase the surface area in the small intestine?
the villi or villus or microvillus or microvilli or muscosal villi
What forms the Large surface area of the small intestine?
The large surface area of the small intestine is formed by the presence of villi and microvilli. Villi are finger-like protrusions lining the intestinal wall, while microvilli are further microscopic projections on the surface of the villi. This structural arrangement maximizes the absorption of nutrients from digested food.
What is the function of the ville?
All villi increase surface area.
How did god greatly increase the surface area of the intestines?
He invented the villi. Villi are extremely tiny nodes that pop out of the intestines walls, making the surface area greater. They also have other little nodes attached to the villi which increase the surface area further. Why does the intestine need so much surface area? Because the more surface area there is, the more nutrients can be absorbed at one time into the blood stream.
Are finger like projections of the mucosa?
Villi. Most absorbtion occurs in the ileum btw.
