The large intestine is much broader than the small intestine and takes a much straighter path through your belly, or abdomen.
Functions:
- The purpose of the large intestine is to absorb water and salts from the material that has not been digested as food, and get rid of any waste products left over.
- The small intestine finishes the process of digestion, absorbs the nutrients, and passes the residue on to the large intestine.

Answer:
Its job is to absorb most of the nutrients from what we eat and drink. Velvety tissue lines the small intestine, which is divided into the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. The large intestine (colon or large bowel) is about 5 feet long and about 3 inches in diameter. The colon absorbs water from wastes, creating stool.
