Biology

Answer: c) central vein.

Explanation:

The liver is an organ that is present both in humans and in vertebrate animals. It secretes the bile, essential for the digestion of fats, and it also has many other functions, including the synthesis of plasma proteins, storage of vitamins and glycogen and detoxifying function. It is responsible for removing various substances from the blood that may be harmful to the body, including alcohol, making them harmless.

The liver is divided by the sickle cell ligament into two main lobes, right and left. <u>There are two other smaller lobes, the square lobe and the caudate lobe</u>.

The hepatic triads are triangular areas located at the angles of the hepatic lobules, made up of a lax conjunctive stroma. <u>They contain a branch of the hepatic artery</u> (that irrigates the liver<u>),</u> <u>a hepatic portail vein</u> (a thick blood vessel that carries blood from the gastrointestinal tract and spleen to the liver so that nutrients are metabolized<u>)</u> and <u>a bile duct</u> (transports bile into the small intestine). Therefore, it does not contain a central vein.

Harlamova29_29 [7]
Producers are very important to ecosystem reason being without the producers we would not be able to survive. Producers make their own food by use of sun which turns simple raw materials into food.
 Herbivores are consumers who eat only green plants. Omnivores eat animals and plants. Scavengers only eat dead organisms. Scavengers help the environment in that they eat dead organisms and decomposes the broken organic material down to the raw material.

How would the inability to make saliva affect digestion?
irina [24]
I believe the inability to make saliva would affect digestion drastically. The first phase in the process of digestion comes with saliva - it breaks down some substances in your mouth, because it contains amylase which helps during this process. If it weren't for saliva, you probably wouldn't even be able to swallow food - and even if you did, it would be almost impossible to break it down in your body.

Advantage amoeba has over a cell of a lizard in relations to their levels of organism
nignag [31]

Amoebas are single-celled organisms, which means that they are composed of just one cell. Each amoeba is a cell capable of performing all living functions by itself. They can reproduce asexually. They are protozoans with no fixed shape. Most have no hard parts and look like blobs of jelly.
