Solution

The correct option is D Rectum
The large intestine is divided into three parts i.e., caecum, colon and rectum. Small intestine opens into the caecum, a pouch like structure. Next comes the colon from where salts and fluids are absorbed. Finally, undigested food reaches the third part of the large intestine, the rectum.
