Gloria is experiencing pain in the upper right portion of her abdomen, has greasy diarrhea, and bleeds excessively when she mens
Volgvan
Bile

Based on the above symptoms, it can be inferred that Gloria lacks bile. Pain in the upper right portion of the abdomen usually corresponds to problems with the liver. The liver produces bile (also known as gall), which is a dark green to yellowish brown fluid that helps most vertebrates with digestion. It increases the absorption of fats and fat-soluble substances such as vitamins A,D,E, and K. It is also necessary for the excretion of bilirubin, which is a byproduct when red blood cells are recycled by the liver. 

Bile deficiency can cause the fats in the food to be undigested and these fats end up excreted as part of feces. It can also lead to vitamin deficiency and a gradual build-up of toxins in the liver.

During seed production, which part of a flowering plant develops into a seed?
tester [92]


The part of a flowering plant that develops into a seed  is the ovule.

When pollen grains land on the stigma of the correct species, they germinate. A pollen tube grows through the tissues of the flower until it reaches an ovule inside the ovary.

The nucleus of the pollen grain (male gamete) then passes along the pollen tube and joins with the nucleus of the ovule (the female gamete). This process is called fertilization.

After fertilization, the female parts of the flower develop into a fruit. The ovules become seeds and the ovary wall becomes the rest of the fruit.
