Small intestine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The small intestine is an intestine, and a part of many living beings. It lies between the stomach and the large intestine. In humans over 5 years old, a small intestine may be five to six meters long. It is longer than the large intestine. But, as its diameter is less, its name is small intestine.
It is in the small intestine, where nutrients of foods get absorbed. It also helps to remove the carbon dioxide in the blood flowing to it and in change, it supplies them with oxygen from the food.
