The next digestive organ is the small intestine.
下一個要講既消化器官係小腸 (small intestine)。
I can't think of a metaphor for small intestine, haha. But, the two main jobs of small intestine are digestion and absorption.
我真心唸唔到小腸可以比喻D咩,有高手唸到既可以同我講下。但,要講小腸既功能既話,佢主要係用黎做兩樣野,分別係消化 (digestion) 同 吸收 (absorption)。終於可以開始吸收食物。
Let's find out how small intestine work.
所以一起黎睇下小腸點運作啦。
____________________________
Small intestine can be divided into 3 main parts, the duodenum, the jejunum and the ileum.
小腸主要可以分做3個部份,十二指腸 (duodenum) 、空腸 (jejunum) 同埋迴腸 (ileum)。

Duodenum, the first section of the small intestine connected to the stomach. It is mainly responsible for the digestion. The desending part of the duodenum has a small opening called the major duodenum papilla. It is an opening for the bile and pancreatic enzymes.
十二指腸係小腸既第一部份,連接住個胃。十二指腸既主要功能係消化,當然都有吸收,不過相對消化而言小好多。十二指腸下降既部份有一個細細地既窿,叫做十二指腸大乳頭 (major duodenum papilla) ,笑左。此乳頭非彼乳頭,十二指腸大乳頭唔係噴奶水,而係噴膽汁 (bile) 同埋胰臟酶 (pancreatic enzymes)。
Jejunum, the second section of the small intestine. It is mainly responsible for the absorption.
空腸係小腸既第二部份,主要負責吸收,同樣啦,相對消化而言。
Ileum, the last section of the small intestine connected to the colon. It is responsible for cleaning up the rest.
迴腸係小腸既最後一個部份,連接住條大腸 (colon) 。佢主要係用黎汁手尾,不厭其煩再講句,相對十二指腸同空腸既功能而言。

The exocrine glands in small intestine is called the intestinal glands. There is another old name called crypts of Lieberkühn. Located inbetween the wall of small intestine.
其中一種小腸既外分泌腺叫小腸腺 (intestinal glands)。位於小腸壁既中間。

(From The Human Protein Atlas)
The intestinal glands have different types of cells with different secretion, including anti-microbial substances and mucosa. Surprisingly, the intestinal glands are not the major source of digestive enzymes.
小腸腺又有唔同既細胞負責分泌唔同既野,包括抗菌物質同埋粘膜。神奇既係,小腸腺唔係點分泌消化酶,或者係因為個胰臟太勁,搶曬D野黎做

The figure shows another glands called the Bruuner's glands, it secretes bicarbonate rich mucous substances in order to neutralize the acidic chyme. Brunner's glands are mainly exist in duodenum so it is also called duodenal glands.
張圖比埋小腸既另一隻腺,叫做十二指腸腺 (Bruuner's glands / duodenal glands),主要係用黎分泌含豐富碳酸氫離子 (bicarbonate, 中文名真係幾鳩下) 既粘膜去中和酸性食糜。
# Some details in cells in intestinal glands
(i)Paneth cell - seretion of anti-microbial substances
(ii)Goblet cell - seretion of mucosa #
# 識多小小「小腸腺」細胞
(壹)潘氏細胞 - 分泌抗菌物質
(貳)杯狀細胞 - 分泌粘膜 #

A very unique structure called the brush border can be found on the inner epithilium of the small intestine.
小腸內壁既上皮組織有一樣好特別既結構,叫做刷狀緣 (brush border)。

This figure shows the strcuture of the brush border. Micovilli can be found on villi and villi can be found on circular folds. There are many circular folds on the inner epithilium of the small intestine. Brush borders help to increase the surface area of the inner small intestine.
張圖解釋番刷狀緣既結構。小腸內壁既上皮組織本來就唔平整,有大大小小既環狀摺 (circular folds) ,而依D環狀摺上面而有好多絨毛(villus),再睇入D會發現呢D絨毛上面重有微絨毛 (microvillus)。(再近D就可以睇到組成微絨毛既細胞) 依D刷狀緣大大咁增加左小腸內壁既面積,令吸收同消化更有效率。
Cells that lining on these brush borders are mainly enterocyte, most abundant cells in small intestine that responsible for absorption.
組成刷狀緣既上皮組織主要係腸上皮細胞,係小腸入面最主要既細胞,負責吸收作用。
