Detailed explanation-1: -The large intestine has four parts: cecum, colon, rectum, and anal canal .
Detailed explanation-2: -In humans, the large intestine begins in the right iliac region of the pelvis, just at or below the waist, where it is joined to the end of the small intestine at the cecum, via the ileocecal valve.
Detailed explanation-3: -The purpose of the large intestine is to absorb water and salts from the material that has not been digested as food, and get rid of any waste products left over. By the time food mixed with digestive juices reaches your large intestine, most digestion and absorption has already taken place.
Detailed explanation-4: -The large intestine consists of eight parts; the cecum, appendix, ascending colon, transverse colon, descending colon, sigmoid colon, rectum, and anal canal. The middle four sections (ascending to sigmoid parts) form the colon.
