The plicae circulares slow down the food passing along the intestines. Because of their shape there is an increase in the surface area between the food and the walls on the intestines which allows more efficient absorption of nutrients from the chyme - the stuff that comes from the stomach.

Uses of six trigonometry functions?
The trigonometric functions give ratios defined by an angle. Whenever you have an angle and a side in right triangle, you can find all the other angles and sides using the six trigonometric functions and their inverses. The link below demonstrates the relationship between functions.
Is the principal trignometric functions are injective?
Yes, that is why they are called "principal". The domains are restricted so that the functions become injective.
Topics need for trigonometry?
There are several topics under the broad category of trigonometry. * Angle measurements * Properties of angles and circles * Basic trigonometric functions and their reciprocals and co-functions * Graphs of trigonometric functions * Trigonometric identities * Angle addition and subtraction formulas for trigonometric functions * Double and half angle formulas for trigonometric functions * Law of sines and law of cosines * Polar and polar imaginary coordinates.
What are some questions about hyperbolic functions?
* What are the exponential equivalents of hyperbolics? * How do hyperbolics relate to standard trig functions? * What shape does cosh produce? * Why does cosh grow faster than sinh? * What are the derivatives and integrals of various functions?
Find the range of trigonometric points?
The range of the circular trig functions sin and cos is is [-1,1], but even in the case of circular functions the range of the tangent function is all real numbers. This is of course true of tangent even if we do not limit it to circular functions. So your question, I assume, is asking about all trig functions. If so the range is all real numbers.
The plicae circulares and intestinal villi are found in which of the four layers of the alimentary tube wall?
The plicae circulares and intestinal villi are found in the mucosa.
Are plicae circulares the same as circular folds?
Yes.
What are the inner folds of the small intestine called?
They are called "plicae circulares"
What are the deep folds of the mucosa and submucosa that extend completely around the circumference of the small intestine?
Circular fold (plicae circulares)
What two digestive processes occur in small intestine?
plicae circulares and peristalsis
Which term doesn't belong villi plicae circulares rugae or microvilli?
rugae
Modifications of the intestinal wall the surface area for absorption?
Villi Microvilli Plicae Circulares
What are Folds in the small intestine called?
permanent folds are called plicae circulares temporary folds are called rugae.
What are the structural modifications of the small intestine to increase surface area?
villi, microvilli, and plicae circulares/circularbfolds
What is plicae circularis?
Plicae circulares is a term used to describe permanent folds of mucous inside of the small intestine. These folds are within the membranes and are only in the lower part of the duodenum and jejunum.
What are projections that cover the folds of the small intestines are called?
rugae It's not rugae - for stomach. Small intestine wall is plicae circulares.
The absorptive effectiveness of the small intestine is enhanced by increasing the surface area of the mucosal lining which of the following structures accomplish this task?
Plicae circulares and intestinal villi
