| ALT_DEFINITION |
A subdivision of the digestive tract that connects the small intestine to the cloaca or anus. Lacks or has few villi. The long, tube-like organ that is connected to the small intestine at one end and the anus at the other. The large intestine has four parts: cecum, colon, rectum, and anal canal. Partly digested food moves through the cecum into the colon, where water and some nutrients and electrolytes are removed. The remaining material, solid waste called stool, moves through the colon, is stored in the rectum, and leaves the body through the anal canal and anus. The avillous section of the intestine composed of crypts and extending from the terminal small intestine to the external orifice. |
