intestinal = intestine (semi-transparent) = intestin + al
The adjective is clearly formed from the noun 'intestine' plus '-al', but the spelling change to the bound stem 'intestin-' makes it slightly less straightforward for learners.
Etymology
Intestinal comes from a Latin idea: the in- part means 'in' and it is related to the words intestine and internal. So intestinal describes something that is 'inside' the belly or gut, especially the intestines.
