Is the appendix really unnecessary?

The small part of the large intestine is called the ***cecum***. It is also called the **vermiform appendix.** The word vermiform comes from the Latin word meaning "**worm-like**". It can grow up to 2-20 cm in length. The average was about 9 centimeters. The largest appendix was found to be 28 centimeters. New research has shown that the appendix is ​​a safe haven for beneficial bacteria. They work to reactivate the digestive tract of a person with diarrhea. Some antibiotics cause a type of diarrhea. This is called "**pseudomembranous colitis**".The disease is more common in people who do not have an appendix. Scientists at **Duke University Medical Center in North Carolina** have proven that the part of the colon that has long been considered unnecessary is actually very beneficial to humans.
