The answer is False: Digestion is completed in the large intestine.

Explanation:

  • The large intestine is primarily responsible for absorbing water and electrolytes from the remaining indigestible food matter and for forming and storing feces.
  • Most of the digestion and nutrient absorption occurs in the small intestine, not the large intestine.
  • The small intestine is where enzymes and bile break down food, and nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream.
  • Therefore, digestion is not completed in the large intestine; it is completed in the small intestine.
