Explain absorption of nutrients in alimentary canal |
|
Answer» Absorption of NutrientsMost NUTRIENT absorption occurs in the small intestinal MUCOSA in the valvulae conniventes (FOLDS of Kerckring). The STOMACH lacks such a highly increased surface area, allowing only the absorption of highly lipid-soluble substances, such as alcohol and aspirin, through its EPITHELIUM. |
