| ALT_DEFINITION |
The opening of the rectum to the outside of the body. The distal orifice of the digestive tract located between the rectum and the external surface of the body, comprising glandular, transitional, and squamous epithelium. Orifice at the opposite end of an animal's digestive tract from the mouth. Its function is to expel feces, unwanted semi-solid matter produced during digestion, which, depending on the type of animal, may be one or more of: matter which the animal cannot digest, such as bones; food material after all the nutrients have been extracted, for example cellulose or lignin; ingested matter which would be toxic if it remained in the digestive tract; and dead or excess gut bacteria and other endosymbionts. |
