Question

describe one way in which the smal intestine is adapted for the absorption of digested food

Answer 1

Small intestine has small finger like projections called villi (this increases the suface area for the absorbtion of food materials),which is highly supplied with blood vessals.as food pass through small intestine,these villi absorb it and through blood vessals it is distributed to al parts of the body. 

Answer 2

#hey...here is ur answer......
______________________________________________________________


The digested is absorbed mostly in the region of villia.

A villia have one lympes vessels called lecteal ,a number of blood capillaries and the covering of epithelial cells. specialised for absorption.

absorption occurs by both active and passive processes..

The absorbed fat is taken away by lacteal while other materials are taken up blood capillaries......

blood capillaries join to form the hepatic portal vein....

hepatic portal vein takes the absorb food to the liver....

from liver the blood takes the food to the other part of the body....

glucose is stored as glycogen in liver and muscles...

it also reaches Every cell for absorption...

amino acid are observed by the individual cell for a assimilation...

Excess amino acid are deaminated by liver....

fat is stored in adipose tissue.... it is also absorbed by individual cell in a small quantity.....
