        the bowel, terminating at the anus. It is adapted for the
        retention of fecal matter, being shorter, broader, and
        less convoluted than the small intestine; it consists of
        three parts, the c[ae]cum, colon, and rectum.
  
     {Small intestine} (Human Anat. & Med.), the upper portion of
        the bowel, in which the process of digestion is
        practically completed. It is narrow and contorted, and
        consists of three parts, the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum.
