| 1 | A colonoscope is a soft, bendable tube about the thickness of the index finger which is inserted into the anus and then advanced through the entire large intestine. | |
| 2 | Another leftover from our plant eating ancestors is the vermiform appendix, which is an organ attached to the large intestine. | |
| 3 | A barium enema is a special X-ray where a white "milk-shake fluid" is flushed into the rectum and by using mild pressure is pushed throughout the entire large intestine. | |
| 4 | The human appendix is a small dead-end tube connected to the cecum, or ascending colon, one section of the large intestine. | |
