How is the structure of jejunum different from ileum?
The jejunum is 2m long while the ileum is 3m long. The jejunum is thicker and more vasculaure than the ileum. There tends to be more plicae circulares in the jejunum region. As for the ileum, the peyer's patches are more common in this region.

What is the difference between the Ileum and the Duodenum?
Distinguishing feature of the duodenum are the Brunner's glands, whereas the Peyer's patches make the ileum easily identificable. The common bile duct and the pancreatic duct enter the duodenum, whereas the ileum does not receive duct from other organs. Outermost layer of the duodenum is comprised of adventitia as it is located retroperitoneally, while the outermost layer of the ileum is represented by serosa(mesothelial cell are evident). The ileum has also more goblet cells than the duodenum. Duodenum represents major site of iron absorption, while the ileum-B12 absorption.

Peyer's patches (or aggregated lymphoid nodules) are organized lymphoid nodules, named after the 17th-century Swiss anatomistJohann Conrad Peyer. They are aggregations of lymphoid tissue that are usually found in the lowest portion of the small intestine ileum in humans; as such, they differentiate the ileum from the duodenum and jejunum.
What do Peyers' Patches do?
Peyer's patches are lymphoid follicles located in the wall of the small intestine. They are similar to the tonsils, they 1) destroy bacteria, preventing them from breaching the wall of the small intestine (which is technically "outside" the body) and entering the bloodstream. 2) the generate memory lymphocytes for long term immunity. They are a part of the collection of lymphoid tissues called MALT, mucosa-associated lymphatic tissue. Hope this helps! RN nursing student
