Answer:
If food moves through the large intestine too quickly, it will not have sufficient time to absorb water, which will result in the passage of watery stool, or diarrhea. By contrast, when food residue remains in the large intestine for an extended period of time, too much water can be absorbed.

Answer:
Muscles in the colon move the stool along to the rectum for passage out of the body. When something disrupts the digestive process, causing too much liquid to be eliminated or the solid waste to pass too quickly through the large intestine, diarrhea can result.
