It extends from the ileocecal junction to the anus. Major parts include cecum, colon, rectum, and anal canal. The colon is divided into ascending, transverse, descending, and sigmoid colon. The large intestine is wider but shorter than the small intestine. Its main function is absorption of water and electrolytes. It helps in formation and storage of feces. Normal gut flora synthesize certain vitamins. Haustra are characteristic features of the large intestine. Taeniae coli are longitudinal muscle bands. The mucosa lacks villi unlike the small intestine. Goblet cells secrete mucus for lubrication. Blood supply is via superior and inferior mesenteric arteries. Venous drainage occurs through portal circulation. Nerve supply is through autonomic nervous system. Peristalsis and mass movements occur in the colon. Defecation reflex is an important physiological process. The appendix is attached to the cecum. Large intestine plays a role in immune defense. Absorption of sodium and water maintains fluid balance. Disorders include constipation and diarrhea. Inflammation may lead to colitis. Knowledge of anatomy helps in clinical practice. Nursing care focuses on bowel health. Colonoscopy is used to examine the large intestine. Proper diet supports normal bowel function. Large intestine topics are important for NORCET. Exam questions focus on structure and function. Clinical correlation improves understanding. This class strengthens digestive system concepts. #NORCET #NORCET11 #PowerClass #DigestiveSystem #LargeIntestine #AnatomyAndPhysiology #HumanAnatomy #Physiology #NursingStudents #BScNursing #GNMNursing #ANMNursing #NursingExam #AIIMSNursing #MedicalEducation #NursingNotes #ExamPreparation #ClinicalAnatomy #MedicalBasics #HealthScience #GastrointestinalSystem #GIAnatomy #StudentNurse #FutureNurse #NursingLife #HospitalLife #ConceptBasedLearning #MCQPractice #CompetitiveExams #StudyNursing #LearningAnatomy #NursingFoundation #KnowledgeBoost #ExamReady #DigestiveHealth #Colon #HealthcareTraining #EducationPost #NursingPreparation
