The image shows a dissection of the contents of the abdominal cavity, with the greater omentum removed to allow visualisation of the small and large bowel. The absorption of water and electrolytes from indigestible material is a function of the ascending colon. However, the arrow points to the jejunum, the second part of the small intestine, whose function is to absorb sugars, amino acids and fatty acids from the food bolus.

The storage of faeces before their passage into the rectum is the function of the descending and the sigmoid colon. However, the arrow points to the jejunum, the second part of the small intestine, whose function is to absorb sugars, amino acids and fatty acids from the food bolus.

The image shows a dissection of the contents of the abdominal cavity, with the greater omentum removed to allow visualisation of the small and large bowel. The second part of the duodenum is responsible for the mixture of partially digested food bolus with the pancreatic enzymes and bile. However, the arrow points to the jejunum, the second part of the small intestine, whose function is to absorb sugars, amino acids and fatty acids from the food bolus.
