Question

Blood transports digested food from the small intestine to other parts of the body

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Absorption of food occurs in the small intestine. The inner lining of small intestine has a large number of finger-like projections called villi. These villi provide a large surface area for absorption of food. The villi are richly supplied with blood vessels. The blood in the blood vessels absorbs the digested food from the small intestine and transports it other parts of the body.
