AB  - The  intestine  begins  at  the  pylorus  and  ends  at  the  anorectal  junction.  It  is  divided  into  the  small  and  large  intestine,  which  are  separated  by  the  ileocecal  valve.  The  small  intestine  is  composed  of  the  duodenum,  jejunum,  and  ileum  and  is  about  6  meters  long  in  adults;  the  large  intestine  is  composed  of  the  cecum,  ascending,  transverse,  descending,  and  sigmoid  colon  and  the  rectum,  totaling  about  1.5  meters  in  length  in  adults.
