What is the role of the jejunum in the digestive process, and how does its structure facilitate nutrient absorption?
The jejunum is the middle section of the small intestine, located between the duodenum and ileum. Its primary role is to absorb nutrients from digested food. The inner lining of the jejunum contains villi, tiny finger-like projections that increase the surface area for absorption. These villi are covered with microvilli, further enhancing absorption efficiency. Nutrients like carbohydrates, proteins, and fats are absorbed into the bloodstream through these structures, which are rich in blood vessels to transport the absorbed nutrients to the rest of the body.
