Solution

The correct option is C
Small intestine

From the stomach, the food in paste form enters the small intestine. Absorption of nutrients and 90 percent of water takes place here. From here, food moves into large intestine. Salts and water left after absorption in small intestine are absorbed in the large intestine.
