Are breasts made of fat?

ABOUT 1/3 OF THE BREAST TISSUE IS MADE UP OF FAT. THE REST IS MADE UP OF LOBES AND LOBULES THAT PRODUCE THE MILK. SO IF YOUR TRYING TO GET BIGGER BREASTS DRINK LOTS OF MILK AND EAT LOTS OF HEALTHY FOODS AND PROTEIN.


How is the cortex different from the medulla in the kidney?

The cortex of the kidney is the outer layer containing medullary rays (striations formed by tubules) and medullary lobules (cortical tissue). This region also contains the main filtration mechanisms: renal (Malphighian) corpuscles that contain glomeruli (capillary tufts). The red/brown color is due to the blood within the many capillaries of this area.


What does seed leaves mean?

the nontechnical name for cotyledon cot·y·le·don (ktl-dn) n. 1. Botany A leaf of the embryo of a seed plant, which upon germination either remains in the seed or emerges, enlarges, and becomes green. Also called seed leaf. 2. Anatomy One of the lobules constituting the uterine side of the mammalian placenta, consisting mainly of a rounded mass of villi.


How is a breast formed?

Breast formation in girls is undergo a process which happen in the age of puberty, in stage of puberty normally age 9 to 13 yr there happen many changes in girls body and the devlopment of breast is an important phase and many chemical and physical changes happen with this... At first the Hypothalemas gland of girls secrate GnRH hormone and this hormone excited the Pituitary gland to secrate the hormones FSH and LH and these hormone attach to the ovaries and order them to secrate the girl sex hormone then the ovaries start to produce the oestogen and progesterone hormone these hormone make the body of girl to enter in adelosent stage and do many changes internally and outside also. These hormone start the bone lengthning, uterus development, sectation of lubricant from genital area and also breast formation. In early stage of breast formation the girls chest areas fat start to collect and after some time the get more fat and a fatty area developed there. In the time of pregnancy the fatty area of breast start to make lobules like structures and these lobules collectevly called lobes, and after delivery they start to form milk by the effect of prolactine hormone...


What structure is abundant in liver cells?

Macro anatomy of liverFor the ease of understanding , liver is anatomically divided into lobes. On its top view, liver shows the left and right lobes separated by the falciform ligament. On the inferior view (from below), it appears with four lobes. However, the organ is roughly divided into 2 principal lobes, right and a left lobe. The falciform ligament forms a septum resulting in the left and right lobes. The abdomen and the liver is thinly separated by a membrane called peritoneum. Peritoneum is the covering layer of all the abdominal organs. Peritoneum has 2 divisions; outer parietal divisions and the inner visceral layer that actually touches the surface of liver. Liver is surrounded by a number of organs forming various impressions. Some of the impressions are gastric impression, renal impression, suprarenal impression, colic impression, and duodenal impression.Microscopic anatomy of liverUnlike other organs, the liver is supplied with two major sources of blood; the portal channel and the hepatic channel. The hepatic artery connected to the major abdominal aorta brings pure blood from the heart, similarly, the impure blood is removed from the liver with the help of 3 hepatic veins. Additionally, portal circulation rich in multiple capillaries and veins also supply the blood from in and out of the liver. Microscopically, liver is divided into a number of hepatic lobules. Each lobule appears hexagonal made up of plates of hepatocytes. Hepatocytes (liver cells) joins the central vein that carry blood out of the liver. If we analyse the histology (microscopic anatomy) of the liver, two major types of liver cells are found: parenchymal cells and the non-parenchymal cells. 3/4th of the liver is filled with the parenchymal hepatocytes and the remaining ¼ is made up of non-parenchymal cells. The liver contains sinusoids, lined with 2 types of cells called sinusoidal endothelial cells, and phagocytic Kupffer cells. Furthermore, hepatic stellate cells are one of the type of non-parenchymal cells found alongside perisinusoidal space, between a sinusoid and a hepatocyte, some intrahepatic lymphocytes are often found within the sinusoidal lumen. The functional lobes of the liver are separated by the imaginary plane called Cantlie's line that joins the gallbladder fossa to the inferior vena cava. The plane separates the liver into left and the right lobes. The middle hepatic vein also demarcates the true right and left lobes.

Is a liver lobe the same as a liver lobule?

No, liver lobes and lobules are different. Liver lobes are the grossly (non-microscopically) visible portions of the liver. Most animals have 6 lobes; right lateral, right medial, quadrate, caudate, left medial and left lateral. In some animals these lobes are fused (so it is hard to tell which lobe is which). Lobules are the microscopic units of the liver. The classical lobule is a hexagonal shape with a central vein at the centre and portal triads (portal vein, hepatic artery and bile duct) at some (or all) of the corners. Please see the related links for diagrams of the liver lobes and lobules.
