Digestive tract terminus
Large intestines is a less common plural form of large intestine, the lower portion of the digestive tract where water is absorbed and waste is formed before elimination.
The singular form dominates in both medical and casual contexts, since humans have only one: The large intestine connects to the small intestine at the cecum.
