The duodenum precedes the jejunum and ileum and is the shortest part of the small intestine, where most chemical digestion takes place.
33.
The suspensory muscle marks the formal division between the first and second parts of the small intestine, the duodenum and the jejunum.
34.
STb also binds strongly to sulfatide as demonstrated by its binding to sulfatide present on the mucosal surface of a pig s jejunum.
35.
The effects of fasting were specific to both time of fasting and the intestinal segment examined ( duodenum, jejunum or ileum ).
36.
They showed that relative weight and length of the jejunum and ileum increased when chickens were supplied with feed and water post hatch.

Active transport is greatest in the jejunum and ileum; but, active transport can be inhibited by alcohol consumption and by folic deficiency.
38.
Duodenal cancer has more in common with stomach cancer, while cancer of the jejunum and ileum have more in common with colorectal cancer.

In humans, the duodenum is a hollow jointed tube about 25 38 cm ( 10 15 inches ) long connecting the stomach to the jejunum.
