Large Intestine
After our long trip through the small intestine we now arrived in the large intestine. This time our ride will be shorter than the previous one. It will also be easier to get through, because it is wider than the small intestine. Again this time we are passing through three different sections, which are called the ascending, transverse and descending colon. The large intestine has basically the same function as the small intestine; it just also absorbs more liquid (water), vitamins and finally forms fecal matter.
