What part of the large intestine are you most likely to get colon cancer?
The first section of the large intestine is the Right Ascending colon, which begins with the cecum. it is followed by the Transverse colon, and finally the Sigmoid colon. Less than 10% of colon cancers (some sources say only 5%) occur in the Ascending colon or cecum. The majority of colon cancers occur in the Sigmoid colon.
What pushes food through the small intestine?
Intestines are lined with what are called smooth muscle tissue. These muscles differ primarily from the muscles attached, for example, to your joints in that their movement is rhythmic and involuntarily controlled. (The heart is another example of smooth muscle movement.) It is this rhythmic, involuntary contraction that moves food through the intestines.

What blood vessels pick up nutrients in the small intestine?
The blood vessel called the mesentery is usually rich in nutrients that is absorbed from the small intestines.
What part of the large intestine connects to the anus?
The small intestine connects your stomach to your colon (also called large intestine), and your colon then attaches to your rectum and finally to your anus.
What will happen if the small intestine were just a straight tube rather than a coiled tube?
The villi helps the small intestine to absorb more nutrients compared to one with a smooth inner lining.Villi ncrease the surface area, allowing more nutrients to be absorbed by the small intestine.
Erythrocytes are also known as red blood cells. The spleen is an organ that contains erythrocytes. The erythrocytes contain hemoglobin that transports oxygen and carbon dioxide to and from the tissues all around the body.
What are some other names for feces?

Any cancer can be cured if caught in time. We all have cancer cells in our body, it is whether or not these cells metastasize (spread) that determines our outcome.
Is the large intestine before the small intestine?
No, the small intestine precedes the large intestine. The former digests and absorbs all the main nutrients, while the large intestine absorbs water and stores faeces ahead of assimilation.
Why is human feces white instead of brown?

Can Marijuana cause Severe stomach pain?
Marijuana has been scientifically proven through various studies conducted by the University of Michigan (the only place in the United States able to study the effects of Marijuana on the body) as being effective to reduce nausea. Similar studies have been conducted in The Netherlands to further support the study. It is for this reason that Marijuana is prescribed to people in states where it is legal (legal in the STATE, not by the FEDERAL government) for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, IBS sufferers, and people with Crohn's Disease.
Is 19 too young for a colonoscopy?
Anyone can get any type of cancer depending on their level of overall health. When the immune system is not working properly (for whatever reasons), diseased cancer cells that develop in everyone are not immediately eliminated, and may go on to cause tumors. HIV AIDS is known to induce immunodeficiency. Progeria is a congenital / genetic illness where a person from time of birth exhibits rapid aging. With advanced age comes a deterioration in various biological functions that shall bring on secondary diseases including cancer, heart disease, stroke, etc. Numerous heavy metal elements are known toxins; these can induce a malfunctioning of the immune system as well as cause death by themselves. Radioactive isotopes are usually heavy metals, and shall cause radioactive particle decay through the emission of ionizing (chemical bond breaking) electromagnetic radiation (photon / high-speed particle emissions) that can continually break and disrupt cellular DNA, and RNA, and mitochondrial DNA and RNA, that can lead to malignancy of the affected cells. Anyone of any age can be exposed to different kinds of ionizing radiation, and therefore have cancer develop. Chemical toxins can damage a person's health and immune systems so that diseases that normally would be suppressed are instead allowed to continue unabated. Trans fats, hydrogenated oils, and many processed foods are chemically altered to have a long shelf life. Because microbes and fungus are unable to use these processed foods and oils for food, this food does not spoil. However, humans may not be able to use this kind of oil for food either, and our cells then become more and more unable to metabolize sugars into energy via oxidation. Instead, our cells may revert to a cancerous state where sugars are metabolized via fermentation into energy. According to studies consumption of trans fats can likely lead to heart troubles, obesity, diabetes, etc. An unhealthy diet consisting of known health risks shall push any healthy person towards ill-health--bit by bit. Alternative medicine attempts to treat the underlying causes of disease rather than the symptoms. Allopathic medicine is mainstream medicine. Mainstream medicine tends to treat symptoms of diseases with surgery (cutting), radiation (burning), and drugs (patentable poisons). All sorts of variously effective cancer cures have been suppressed by mainstream medicine so that money can be made by drug companies, the cancer industry, and medical insurance companies. If people were treated with an inexpensive, natural cure that they could grow in their back yard, then all of these industries would lose a lot of money. To protect them, health protection agencies have been established to protect the drug companies from any such unregulated competition by jailing the offenders-persons making "unproven health claims" whose cures actually work and whose patients are alive and well decades post-treatment. The industrialists who promoted such government health protection legislation own all of the industries who would be harmed by any natural cures, and they sponsor grants to universities, medical colleges, scientific research, they publish medical journals or the journals get all of their advertising revenue from the industrialists' companies, they donate to political parties to grease the wheels to get legislation written that suits their needs rather than the public's.
