Where is the intestine located?

The intestine is located in the abdominal cavity, which is the space within the abdomen. The intestine is a long, coiled tube that runs from the stomach to the anus. It is made up of the small intestine and the large intestine. The small intestine is the longer of the two and is responsible for most of the digestion and absorption of nutrients from food. The large intestine is responsible for absorbing water and electrolytes from food and forming stool.
