The goal of the large intestine is to absrob minerals, remaining nutrients, and specially water. So this kind of components must enter the large intestine. Therefore the correct option is A. "Insoluble fibers, waste and water. B./C are not correct, because the food full of nutrientes/ball of food enters the small intestine, before the large one. D. is not correct either, because the food along with enzymes are the products that exit from the stomach.
