Final answer:

Food nutrients are absorbed in the small intestine, with indigestible waste moving to the large intestine where water is absorbed to form feces.

After food is digested, the resulting nutrients are absorbed. Absorption is mainly in the small intestine while indigestible matter passes into the large intestine as waste. The large intestine absorbs water, forming feces that is later eliminated through defecation.
