The colon, also known as the large intestine, is a long tube that is connected to the small intestine, bringing the food waste to the end of the digestive system. It is lined by a simple columnar epithelium with a thin brush border and numerous goblet cells.
The rectum is a chamber that begins at the end of the large intestine, immediately following the sigmoid colon, and ends at the anus. It is characterized by the same columnar epithelium that lines the majority of the gastrointestinal tract’s secretory and absorptive areas
