the first part of you large intestine is a pouch called the cecum. it receives waste from the small intestine dangling from the cecum is mysterious worm-shaped tube called the appendix. the appendix is only 3 to 4 inches. (8 to 10 cm) long. most people only think about their appendix if it gets infected. swells up, and hurts. it must then be removed. people can live perfectly well without an appendix in the past, sceintists thought the appendix was just a usless bit of tissue, new resarch, however, shows how the appendix may store "good" bacteria that will help your digestive system work. @sharkyshar byeeeee... dont ask.
