Intestines

Another name is the liver, the large intestine is not another name for colon. Whenever someone is diagnosed with colon cancer it is because the liver isn't producing bile and filtering toxins.

it's the intestinal crypts, or crypts of Lieberkuhn

Blood in the stool is typically occur due to hemorrhoids or anal fissures, which is a tear in the lining of the anus. A bleeding results from passing a hard stool, straining too much while defecating, hemorrhoids or anal fissures. Constipation and diarrhea increase the chances of developing hemorrhoids. Severe cases that cause chronic bleeding may have to be death with surgically.

Diverticulosis. If inflamed, it's diverticulitis.

Its basically when the small intestine pushes inside the large intestine. most common in babies. i almost died from the condition when i was about a year old. but its very rarely fatal, especially these days (i'm 21 now, so 20 years ago medical tech was obviously less advanced). The operation to fix it is incredibly advanced and safe these days as far as i know. I've done some research on it. Hope that helps.

The intestinal epithelium, which covers the small and large intestine, is simple columnar and nonciliated. It lines most of the organs of the digestive tract.

As we age, flatus can increase in both stench and frequency. The main causes of this are; lack of bacteria that are normally present in colons of the younger people and indigestion because of lack of chewing one's food causing it to have to be broken down late in the colon rather than in the stomach. This is sometimes unavoidable as muscles fatigue as we grow older and false teeth may not chew quite as well as their OEM counterparts. To help cure the other part of this issue, the lack of proper bacterial cultures, yogurts are recommended, especially those listed as pro-biotic. Fiber is also a great idea but is more for regularity than anything (ie the prevention of constipation or diarrhea) On rare occasion, a doctor may recommend that a culture be transplanted from a healthy specimen. Yes, this is exactly what it sounds like but is only used in rare cases, especially when a patient is suffering form a bacterial infection like c. diff or a disease like colitis.

Because what you eat effects the color of you poop. If you poop is green or more likely to be brown that's good because it means you healthy. If your poop appears to be different then usually you should contact your doctor.

the bile duct

sure, if you push to hard on the turd and its a big one you may run the risk of getting hemeroids

Because it takes time to absorb food.

Not exactly. Bowel is all the intestines, both small and large; technically, colon is just the large intestine from cecum to rectum. This is according to www.onelook.com, which has valid dictionaries.

Horses can't throw up. Why?Horses have a band of muscle around the oesophagus as it enters the stomach. This band works as a one-way valve. Food passes down the oesophagus into the stomach as the valve relaxes, but when it squeezes down on the opening,
it cuts off the passage for food going back up. In horses, this muscle closes so powerfully they simply can't vomit.
Also, the oesophagus meets the stomach at an angle, which enhances the cut-off function when the horse's stomach is bloated with food or gas. Then, the stomach wall pushes against the valve, closing the oesophagus off even more completely.
It's very bad for the horse if material does come up from the stomach. Grass sickness can sometimes cause vomiting - damage to the nervous system means the valve mechanism fails to close. Stomach contents flow into the oesophagus and horses 'vomit' through their nostrils, or risk inhaling stomach contents, causing aspiration pneumonia. Because horses can't vomit, materials have to be evacuated through the gut - this is why they're prone to colic.

Two questions:

Food is broken down in the stomach and small intestines.

Nutrients (plus other related stuff) is carried from the small intestines to the liver via the portal system.

Some nutrients pass directly from the liver to the veins (inferior vena cava),

then is carried by the blood to the rest of the body.

Other chemicals are modified by the liver into useful compounds, then are also dumped into the vena cava for distribution.

Yes bacteria produces enzymes used, in the fermentation process of making vitamins.

Also bacteria makes Vitamin K and two B vitamins, niacin and thiamine. NOW STOP BEING FRIKIN LAZY AND DO YOUR FRIKIN HW!!!!!!!!!!

* Part of digestive system * intestines * absorb (small=nutrients large=water)

No. They come from two different places in the body. Chemical waste and excess water in the body is extracted by the kidneys and leaves the body as urine. Fecal matter is the leftover bulk of what is eaten and contains what the body hasn't digested. That includes indigestible fiber, fat, plant matter, and other bulk. It leaves through the intestines.

Now, it is possible for the water to be pulled out of the feces and be used by the body and released as urine. However, that makes the feces harder and leads to fecal impaction.

Those tiny finger-like projections in the lining of the small intestine are called "Villi" (VILL-eye). They look like velvet and their purpose is to provide much, much more surface area to absorb nutrients than a smooth lining would.

Fiber is very good for clearing up your digestive track and it is Great for your body you should get a lot of fruits and vegtables and FIBER also workout but only go to your limit then eat a lot of healthy foods GOOD LUCK.... :)

No.

The stomach attaches to the small intestines (where food is absorbed into the body)

which is attached to the large intestines (where most of the water is reabsorbed).

yes, after food is digested excess water or leftover watre is reabsorbed by the large intestine. Certain types of vitamins are also synthesiszed here, people who do not go to the wash room after long periods of time tend to have constipation because water is reabsorbed from the feces.

its large intestine allows it to move faster

No, that would be wrong, someone would have to clean it up. Don't do it, what if you had to clean it?

-----------------------

its better than releasing on the floor, if you flush it enough, the load will dissolve through the filter screen and there will be no damage done. a janitor would rather clean it out of a urinal instead of the corner of the bathroom or a sink.

Yes, as long as you are using the toilet. That's what it is there for.
