Every part of the digestive tract has features that fit its function. What are the differences between the large and the small intestines?

• Small intestine is longer.
• Large intestine is not tightly coiled.
• Small intestine has villi/microvilli.
• Large intestine does not produce digestive enzymes.
• We have voluntary control of the last sphincters of the large intestine.
