The Small Intestine is the Site of the Majority of Nutrient

Question

The small intestine is the site of the majority of nutrient digestion and absorption.

Accepted Answer

The small intestine plays a significant role in digestion and absorption of nutrients. The inner walls of the small intestine are lined with tiny, finger-like projections called villi, which increase the surface area for absorption. The majority of nutrients, including carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals are absorbed in the small intestine.
