absorbs nutrients the jejunum doesn't ; Meckel's Diverticulum found here
color;pale pink Peyer's patches

SMA ✔️Ans - blood supply to the distal pancreas,duodenum, cecum,
and the ascending and right transverse colon;
what are some medical conditions that may mimic anorexia?
What is the most common vessel blocked with intestinal ischemia?
The inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery branches off which artery?
Inferior Mesenteric Artery
IMA ✔️Ans - oirgin: abdominal aorta; Supplies the left half of the

sigmoid colon ✔️Ans - most common site for diverticula; S shaped
part of the colon between the ascending and rectum;suseptible to volvulus
because greatest range of motion, easy to twist on itself
volvulus ✔️Ans - twisting of the bowel can cut off blood supply and
lead to gangrene; can be corrected by peristalsis
peristalis ✔️Ans - contraction of smooth muscle that keep digested
food moving downward
