Biology

Alika [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The correct answer is villi.

Explanation:

The carbohydrates consumed by human beings are further dissociated into its mono forms, that is, fructose, glucose, and galactose. Of these monosaccharides, about 80% is glucose, which gets absorbed with the assistance of absorptive cells in the small intestine. In the walls of the small intestine, the food after digestion is passed into the blood vessels via the process of diffusion.  

The mucosa or the inner wall of the small intestine is enveloped by finger-like tissues known as villi that further comprise microscopic finger-like outcrops called microvilli. These villi and microvilli enhances absorption of nutrients as they increase the surface area of the small intestine. Thus, the absorption of glucose within the small intestine is enhanced by the presence of villi.
