Pouches in the wall of the colon?

Pouches in the wall of the colon are known as diverticula. They form when weak spots in the colon's muscular wall bulge outward, often due to increased pressure from factors such as a low-fiber diet. While diverticula themselves may not cause symptoms, their presence can lead to diverticulitis, an inflammation or infection that can result in abdominal pain, fever, and digestive issues. Managing fiber intake and hydration can help prevent the formation of diverticula and associated complications.

Why does the small intestine have such such a large internal surface area?

The small intestine serves to digest and absorb food. It continues the task of turning solid food into liquids. Your body can only digest liquids. It also pushes food through your body. In the process, it absorbs food and sends it through veins to your liver. The food is absorbed through extremely tiny projections called villi. A number of them are required so your body can get enough food to keep you alive. You have more than you need because humans were designed to be able to eat during periods of abundance and survive during famines. Your small intestine must have enough folds to give it enough surface area to have enough villi.

What do villi do in the small intestine?

Surface area is the amount of surface that is exposed in a space. For instance, a sheet of flat paper covers the same amount of area as a bigger piece of crumpled up paper, but the bigger piece of paper has more surface area. Folding and crumpling surfaces up makes it easy to fit more surface area into a smaller space.

Since villi are very tiny folds that stick out from the small intestines, more surface area is fit inside a smaller space. If you were to "flatten out" all the little villi of the small intestines it would cover a football field. Not so if the inside of the intestine were smooth.
