Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Cecum. Digested food from your small intestine goes into this pouch. Your appendix hangs off the end of your cecum.
Detailed explanation-2: -The appendix is a tube that is lined with a mucous membrane on the inside. It hangs off the end of a pouch at the beginning of the large intestine (the cecum) and looks a bit like an earthworm. Because of this, it is also known as the “vermiform appendix” (the word “vermiform” comes from Latin and means “worm-shaped").
