liver
Name the 4 lobes of the liver - ANSWER-right, left, quadrate, and caudate
lobes
,Name the 5 ligaments the liver is secured by: - ANSWER-• Falciform - forms a
membrane-like barrier between the right and left lobes
• Coronary
• Right triangular
• Left triangular
• Round ligaments
What are the 10 responsibilities of the liver? - ANSWER-• Production of bile
• Production of certain blood plasma proteins
• Production of cholesterol
• Storage of excess glucose in the form of glycogen (that can be converted back
to glucose when needed)
• Regulation of amino acids
• Processing of hemoglobin (to store iron)
• Conversion of ammonia
• Purification of blood (clears out drugs and other toxins)
• Regulation of blood clotting
• Controlling infections by boosting immune factors and removing bacteria
What is the main absorption organ of the digestive tract? - ANSWER-small
intestine
Functions of the small intestine - ANSWER-• Most nutrients are absorbed by
the small intestine
• Enzymes from pancreas, liver, and stomach help with digestion
• Bile (stored in gallbladder) breaks down fats

Functions of the large intestine - ANSWER-• Concentrates, mixes, and stores
waste material
• Attaches to rectum
• Nervous system triggers muscles to poop
• Speed for waste removal is influenced by volume of fiber and undigested
material present

controls size of blood vessels
Thyroid gland - ANSWER-helps regulate metabolism and functions in growth
and development
Parathyroid - ANSWER-regulates calcium levels in blood
, Pancreas islets - ANSWER-raises and lowers blood sugar; active in
carbohydrate metabolism
Thymus gland - ANSWER-plays role in immune responses
Pineal gland - ANSWER-has influence on daily biorhythms and sexual activity
