The liver breaks down subtances such as Alcohol, Drugs and any other waste material so that the kidney's can remove them. The liver also destroys old red blood cells.
The liver has a lot more than two jobs. It is estimated to have over 1,500 different processes.
it helps to digest the food
The major organs of the digestive tract are the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine. Other digestive organs include the liver, gallbladder, and pancreas.
The major structures of the digestive system are the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestines, large intestines, rectum and anus. The liver, pancreas, and gallbladder also aid in digestion.
circulatory system: to transport blood to the heart digestive system: the chewing of food for energy
The purpose of the digestive system is to break down food to make it absorbable into the bloodstream.
The digestive system has several functions - two main functions of the digestive system is to break down food, using digestive secretions and enzymes, and the second is to absorb the nutrients from that food, namely from the microvilli in the small intestine. The digestive system also contributes to our immune system, with the HCl in the stomach killing some pathogens, bacteria germs, as well as the symbiosis between beneficial and detrimental bacteria in the large intestine having a major influence on our immune system. Hope that helps!

The gallbladder is a small organ attached to the underside of the liver. It is here that bile is stored until it is required. If the liver is pushed and overwhelmed with the work it needs to carry out, perhaps because of excessive hormonal demands or toxicity, it can become 'overheated'. This, in turn, will deleteriously affect other organs and systems. The liver also instigates some hormonal processes and inactivates others; it plays a major role in the premenstrual phase, menstruation, menopause and other endocrine times for women. Men too have their own needs for liver and hormone activities. The digestive system functions to digest and absorb nutrients from the food ingested into the body. Additionally, the digestive system transports foodstuff through the gastrointestinal tract. The primary organs of the digestive system include the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum, and anal canal. Accessory organs that aid the primary organs include the teeth, salivary glands, tongue, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and appendix.
The major organs of the digestive tract are: -Mouth/Teeth -Esophagus -Stomach -Small Intestine -Large Intestine -Rectum/Anus The digestive system also has organs that food does not go through. These organs include: -Liver -Gallbladder -Pancreas
the pancreas works with the small intestine and the liver. It works with the liver by sending the hormones that it makes to the liver. The pancreas makes insulin and glucagon. If the blood sugar is high, the pancreas sends out insulin. The liver reads this and it will store glucose(sugar). Glucagon tells the liver to release glucose when the blood sugar is high. The pancreas works with the small intestine because it makes digestive juices that are sent into the small intestine. The juices help break down food.
