Which of the following is NOT a segment of the colon?
Correct Answer:
Cecum
Explanation:
The main idea here is knowing which parts belong to the colon. The colon has four main segments: ascending, transverse, descending, and sigmoid. The cecum sits at the very start of the large intestine as a pouch that receives material from the ileum through the ileocecal valve. It is not a segment of the colon itself. So, the cecum is the part that is not a colon segment, while the ascending, transverse, and sigmoid are actual parts of the colon.
