| Lacteals | lymphatic capillaries; absorb fat
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
| Absorption | the process by which the end products of this kind of digestion (lacteals, villus) are transferred into the blood stream
🗑
|
||||
| Function of the Large Intestine | to absorb water; performs peristalsis, incubation of bacteria as it aids in the production and absorption of Vitamin K (fat soluble vitamin)
🗑
|
||||
| Divisions of the Large Intestine | cecum, ascending colon, transverse colon, descending colon, sigmoid colon, rectum, anus
🗑

🗑
|
||||
| Ileocecal Junction | where the small intestine and large intestine join; ileocecal valve
🗑
|
||||
| Ileocecal Valve | prevents the backflow of food into the small intestine; opens into the cecum
🗑
