The small intestine is longer than the large intestine, although it has a smaller width. The small intestine is between the the stomach and and the large intestine. The large intestine is the last part of the digestive system.
The Large intestine absorbs water, nutrients and salts. The small intestine absorbs carbohydrates, protein, fats, minerals and vitamins.
Small intestine has finger-like projections (called villi) while these are absent in large intestine.
ANS2:Small intestine helps in digestion and absorption of food while large intestine helps in reabsorption of food and elimination of wastes. ANS3:The small intestine is only small in its diameter. In herbivores, the small intestine may be around ten times longer than the large intestine. The small intestine is where the villi-covered walls absorb nutrients from the digested food. Once the nutrients are removed, the waste enters the large intestine where the water is removed and the waste is consolidated. The origin of the following quote is linked:The small intestine in adults is a long and narrow tube about 7 meters (23 feet) long. The large intestine is so called because it is wide in diameter. However, it is shorter than the small intestine - only about 1.5 meters (5 feet) long.
The small intestine is responsible for nutrient uptake, the large intestine is responsible for fluid uptake.
Small intestine contains digest food and absorbs the nutrients from it. The large intestine contains food waste.
The small intestine is longer than the large intestine, but it has a smaller width than the large intestine.
The inside of the small intestine is covered in villi (making the interior look bumpy), but the inside of the large intestine is smooth.
the small intestine finishes the brake down of the substance you consume and has villi which absorb simple nutrients such as amino acids, simple sugars and fatty acids. Then they are picked up by capillaries in the villi and transported throughout the body. On the other hand, the large intestine just transport the waste to the rectum and absorbs water.
well, the small intestine breaks down food and passes the nutrient to the blood vessels and the large intestine eliminates all the waste
The majority of digestion takes place in the small intestine, while the large intestine absorbs water from the remaining indigestible food and sends it out of the body.
Also, the small intestine is longer, but has a thinner diameter than the large intestine, which is shorter but wider.
Small Intestine- the small intestine basically breaks the substance down, so it is easier to use. Large Intestine- the Large intestine expells all unwanted m;iquids that come from the substance.

The large intestine is larger in diameter. There is a valve called the iliocecal valve where they join.
the small intestine is where most chemical things happen and the large intestine gets rid of it.
thie website sucks. you cant find any answers
small intestine is actually bigger than the large one.
By their thickness and structure
it looks like the small intestine but bigger
Polyps are the abnormal cells that are formed in the large intestine that look like a mushroom or like a small size ball.
The small intestine has three parts -- duodenum, jejunum and ileum. The ileum, being the last part of the small intestine, is the section that empties chyme into the beginning of the large intestine, which is the cecum. Chyme is released from the ileum through the ileocecal valve, a sphincter muscle, and into the cecum. I suggest you look at online or textbook illustrations of the gastrointestinal tract to see what this looks like.
The heart, lungs, and small intestine would be found in the Ventral Body Cavity. Check this site out for a look at different cavities: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventral_body_cavity
The small intestine of a pig is a major site of nutrient absorption. The pancreas releases digestive enzymes into the small intestine, which break down nutrients from food. The nutrients are absorbed in the last section of the small intestine, and whatever is left passes to the large intestine.
The pancreas looks similar to one arm of a starfish.
the parts are: mouth, tongue, palate, bolus, teeth, espigolthis, esophagus, stomach, pancreas, gallbladder, liver, small intestine large intestine. if u don't feel satisfied u may look at WWW.encyclopedia.com
Someone's insides are primarily made up of the small and large intestine. Intestines are very long, with the small intestine being 20 feet long.
Here. Look up on Wiki Answers "how does the small intestine work with other systems?" If this doesn't help type in this question on google. There is a great answer on this site for it. I had the same question :)
It loks like a snail o crack cocaine.
No, because each of these organs carry out different functions. The stomach wall secretes a strong acid, so it will look different to the small intestine, which is responsible for absorbing nutrients and producing enzymes. This in turn bears no resemblance to the oesophagus - best suited to carry out the process of peristalsis, allowing food to move through, into the stomach.
look at the map, it is below ths small intestine and kidney.
