Answer:

The correct answers are blank1: Thyroid and blank2: parathyroid.

Explanation:

The thyroid gland is an endocrine gland found in the neck. It utilizes iodine obtained from food to make 2 hormones, triiodothyronine or T3 and thyroxine or T4, which regulate the body's metabolism and the way the body uses energy.

The parathyroid gland is the neighboring glands but they have no relation between them. The parathyroid glands are four small glands situated behind the thyroid gland. The parathyroid glands manufacture parathyroid hormone or PTH that regulates the amount of calcium in the blood.

Thus, The correct answers are blank1: Thyroid and blank2: parathyroid.

The given blank can be filled with liver.  

The huge surface area of the small intestine helps in absorption of nutrients. The water-soluble nutrients and small fats enter the bloodstream directly. The inner surface of the small intestine comprises hundreds of folds of compositions known as villi. Within the villi, there are numerous microscopic projections known as microvilli.  

The microvilli substantially enhance the surface area of the small intestine that upsurges the rate of absorption of nutrients. Upon entering the bloodstream the water-soluble nutrients are directed towards the liver prior to being transported to the cells.
