    The answer to this question would be: Moist and formed

    Water absorption mainly happens in the colon. When someone has a colostomy, the absorption of water will be decreased as the length of the colon that the stool pass is decreased. The colon on left side would be the descending colong, mean that the stool will pass the ascending and transverse colon so it should be formed enough.
