In which part of the digestive system is water absorbed ?
The answer is the colon commonly called the large intestine.
With a length of 1.5 meters the primary function of the large intestine is absorption of water and electrolytes from digestive residues (a process that usually takes 24 to 30 hours). The wrenching action to separate the undigested food and the water contained in it begins in the ascending part of the colon .
