SMALL INTESTINES
The duodenum is responsible for most of the digesting, whereas the jejunum and ileum are responsible for the absorption of nutrients into the bloodstream. The wall of the small intestine has the same four layers as the other parts of the digestive system, except that the small intestine has glands that excrete an enzyme known as intestinal juice.
