Question : Which organ has finger-like outgrowths which are called Villi (Singular Villus)?
Option 1: Large Intestine
Option 2: Bladder
Option 3: Small Intestine
Option 4: Stomach
Correct Answer: Small Intestine
Solution : The correct option is the Small intestine .
Villi are tiny, finger-like extensions that line the small intestine's walls. They are composed of specialised cells and are surrounded by even smaller projections known as microvilli. The surface area of the intestinal lining is considerably increased by villi, enabling efficient absorption of nutrients from digested food into the bloodstream. This improves the small intestine's digestion and absorption capacity.
