Mineral ions and vitamins

Question

Which part of the digestive tube chiefly Absorbs the water? What can be said about the mineral ions and the vitamins?

Answer 1

Most of the part of water, mineral ions and vitamins are absorbed by small intestine. The large intestine, though, is chiefly responsible for reabsorption of nearly 10% of the ingested water, an important amount which gives consistency to feces.
