How to use "Intestine" in context?
The intestine is a long, coiled tube that begins at the stomach and extends through the entire length of the body. It is responsible for digestion of food and absorption of nutrients. The intestine is lined with a layer of cells called the villi. The villi are tiny finger-like projections that are covered in a layer of cells that are responsible for the absorption of food. The intestine also contains specialized cells called lymph nodes. These lymph nodes serve as the body's natural defense against harmful bacteria and parasites.
