      [NCERT, CBSE (AI) 2008C] How is the small intestine designed to absorb digested food?                                     [NCERT]

    Answer:

                      The small intestine is the main region for the absorption of digested food. The inner lining of small intestine has millions of tiny finger-like projections called villi. The presence of villi gives the inner walls of the small intestine a very large surface area for absorption of digested food. The villi are richly supplied with blood vessels which take the absorbed food to each and every cell of the body.
