Upgraded B003 Ntbi1203 Function Large Intestine Simplified
Upgraded B003 Ntbi1203 Function Large Intestine Simplified — a labelled NEET Biology diagram with a definitions lexicon.
Diagram highlighting the function of the large intestine. Labelled parts: Large Intestine, Small Intestine, Cross-section, Fermentation, into the body, Waste Management. The terminal part of the alimentary canal involved in the absorption of water and salts and the formation of feces. FYI: It consists of the caecum, colon, and rectum, and it houses a large population of symbiotic bacteria. The longest part of the digestive tract where the majority of chemical digestion and nutrient absorption occurs. FYI: The internal surface area is vastly increased by finger-like projections called villi and microscopic microvilli. A diagrammatic view of an organ or tissue obtained by cutting it at a right angle to its longitudinal axis. FYI: Transverse sections (T.S.) are standard in plant anatomy to study the arrangement of vascular bundles. A metabolic process that consumes sugar in the absence of oxygen, regenerating NAD+ from NADH. into the body is a labeled feature or concept in this upgraded BioAtlas image: A simplified cross-section diagram of the colon wall. Use arrows to show water absorption (into the body) and bacterial action/vitamin synthesis occurring within the lumen. Waste Management is a labeled feature or concept in this upgraded BioAtlas image: A simplified cross-section diagram of the colon wall. Use arrows to show water absorption (into the body) and bacterial action/vitamin synthesis occurring within the lumen.
