Why do bile and pancreatic juice enter the duodenum through a common duct?
The pancreatic ducts (Wirsung, and sometimes when present the Santorini) enter the duodenum. The gallbladder duct proper is called the cystic duct, and it joins the main hepatic duct to form the choledochal duct. The choledochal duct in turns joins with Wirsung's duct in the head of the pancreas to enter the duodenum through the major papilla. None of these structures enter the colon.

What does a plate tectonic look like?
its just like a cracked hard boiled egg the shell are the plates and the egg while is the mantle. the tectonic plates move on top of magma which is the mantle. they move due to convection currents which occur within the mantle the oceanic plates sub duct in to the mantle while the continental plates don't as they are not as dense. they basicly freeze and move sideways and then descend back in to the mantle again just very slowly. just like a massive jigsaw puzzle. if you get a hard boiled egg and crack it and wiggle it around it might become clear!!!

You have a bad vacuum reservoir or leaking vacuum line. Vacuum is usedd to control the air duct doors in your system and when you accelerate, the vacuum supply is greatly reduced...causing the duct doors to "default" to the defrost position.
