Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Cecum: This first section of your large intestine looks like a pouch, about two inches long. It takes in digested liquid from the ileum and passes it on to the colon.
Detailed explanation-2: -Water is absorbed by the large intestine by osmosis, with diffusion occurring in accordance with the osmotic gradient.
