rodikova [14]3 years ago

Explanation:

The liver is connected to two large blood vessels, the hepatic artery and the portal vein. The hepatic artery carries blood from the aorta to the liver, whereas the portal vein carries blood containing the digested nutrients from the entire gastrointestinal tract, and also from the spleen and pancreas to the liver.

The hepatic veins carry oxygen-depleted blood from the liver to the inferior vena cava. They also transport blood that has been drained from the colon, pancreas, small intestine, and the stomach, and cleaned by the liver. These veins originate from the core vein of the liver lobule, but they do not have any valves.
The hepatic duck: A duct that carries bile from the liver into the common bile duct which conveys it to the duodenum (the upper part of the small intestine).

geniusboy [140]
Since our bodies are made up of 70 percent water, we need water to keep us from dehydrating, food is important because it has the nutrients and proteins that our bodies need to repair, grow, and  keep healthy, and oxygen is also important because it gets carried throughout our blood stream and oxygenates our muscles, without any of these, we would die within a few weeks

The correct answer is radial symmetry.

This means that there's a central axis around which they are formed, which is similar to how starfish or tulips grow. Similarly put, it's like cutting a pie or a pizza through the axis and getting the same pieces.
