Answer:

Supporting small intestine

Step-by-step explanation:

Mesentery is a tissue, often called membrane that attaches organs to the body wall. It is usually located near the small intestine and attaches it to the abdominal wall. In frogs, mesentery also has supportive role: it holds together coils of the small intestine. Mesentery is thin with lot of blood vessels, nerves and lymphatic vessels. It supplies the intestines.
