The Amish have a genetic trait called polydactyly which is rare among other populations of people. This means that a person can 6 fingers, usually an extra thumb. This kind of evolutionary effect that is exhibited in this specific example is called the Founder effect. This happens when there is a small number of colonizing ancestors.
Could be taxon (it means to be the largest in the group or something like that)
After the digestion of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in duodenum, the digested nutrients are absorbed in the ileum.
Ileum is a section of the small intestine, after duodenum.
Food is absorbed by diffusion and active transport. Villi on the walls of the ileum helps this process, since it can increase its surface area and provide a good blood supply, thus increase the rate of absorption.
Note that water can also be absorbed in the large intestine, those water absorbed there are the ones that cannot be absorbed in the ileum.
However, not all water is absorbed as we can notice that faeces are wet.
I believe the water will vaporize when it reaches a certain temperature. I'm not good in this subject, but I think I'm correct. Hope this helps. :)
