Blood goes to the liver via hepatic artery (comes from your heart) and the portal vein (from your digestive system). Inside the liver, there are billions of cells called hepatic cells.

After it is change, these by-products will then be secreted out of your body through your urine.


What is the relationship between carcinogens and mutations?

Carcinogens are substances that can cause mutations in the DNA of cells, which can lead to the development of cancer. Mutations are changes in the genetic material of cells, and when these mutations are caused by carcinogens, they can disrupt the normal functioning of cells and potentially lead to uncontrolled cell growth and the formation of tumors.
