GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The middle part of your small intestine is the jejunum. The jejunum absorbs most of your nutrients: carbohydrates, fats, minerals, proteins, and vitamins. The lowest part of your small intestine is the ileum. This is where the final parts of digestive absorption take place.

Detailed explanation-2: -The small intestine carries out most of the digestive process, absorbing almost all of the nutrients you get from foods into your bloodstream. The walls of the small intestine make digestive juices, or enzymes, that work together with enzymes from the liver and pancreas to do this.

Detailed explanation-3: -The jejunum is the middle part of the small intestine, between the duodenum and ileum. Most digestion and nutrient absorption takes place in the jejunum.

Detailed explanation-4: -The thick mucosa has so many folds and projections that its surface area is about 100 times as broad as the surface area of your skin. This is why 95% of the carbohydrates and protein you consume are absorbed in the small intestine. It also absorbs about 90% of the water that it receives during digestion.

Detailed explanation-5: -Your small intestine is the longest part of the human digestive system. It’s about 20 feet long. After food leaves your stomach, it passes into your small intestine. This is where most of the digestive process takes place.
