Liver

A human has only one liver.correction most humans have only one liver, however some of us like myself have two livers.

There could be any number of reasons for such a pain - ranging from ovulation (if female) to foodborne illness to appendicitis. (I have had all three.) You should check with a medical professional.

The proper hepatic artery supplies the liver and gall bladder

pancreas produces insulin to keep blood sugars under control

liver processes toxins like drugs and alcohol

An individuals life expectancy with cirrhosis can be calculated using the "MELD" score - an algebraic formula Modelling End stage Liver Disease, based on blood results and other factors. Please see related link for the MELD calculator.

It OS often said when you ask this question that the Liver is not involved in the Urinary System and you must be mistaken with the Kidneys. But in reality there would be no urinary system without the liver. This is the place where the excess nitrogen from Bodily Pretiens is put into Urea to be disposed of back into the environment. To get the nitrogen to the liver a special amino acid called Glutamate (given the symbol Glu) carries it in the form of an amino group (NH3) making another amino acid called Glutamine. When the Glutamine gets to the liver it drops one animo group (thus one nitrogen) to become Glu again which in turn either drops its own amino group or becomes aspartate both of which are direct precurser for urea. Obviously the urinary system is mostly concerned with removing this excess nitrogen form the body in the urine.

it belongs to the digestive system cause the liver helps with the synthesis of the vitamins and minerals we get from the food we eat.

The hormone glucagon stimulates the liver to release glucose into the blood when glucose levels are low.

No, not on a daily usage. Should not use if have kidney failure

glycogen

Any foods high in fat, especially saturated fat.

Above is wrong answer, and will have adverse impact

digests fat, and maintains the correct level of blood sugar in the body

The human liver is located at the top of the abdomen, on the right side of the body just below the diaphragm. The lower part of the rib cage covers the liver and protects it from injury. A normal adult liver weighs about 1.5 kg and is about 15 cm thick.

If your liver is not filtering, it is not doing it's job correctly, so you should see a hepatologist about it to assess the cause. There are many possible reasons for your liver malfunctioning.

Enzymes, they are responsible in chemical digestion.

No, dehydration cannot cause elevated liver enzymes. Vitamin deficiency and damage to liver can cause the enzymes of the liver to be elevated.

Bile helps digest fatty foods by emulsifying the fats.

liver cell damage

A person who is overweight, over the age of 40, and who has diabetes may have a fatty liver. This can also be caused by alcohol consumption and certain medications. Side effects are high blood pressure and high triglycerides.

Lorazepam is primarily metabolized by the liver, but it is generally considered to have a low potential for liver toxicity compared to other medications. In individuals with pre-existing liver conditions, the metabolism of lorazepam may be altered, potentially leading to increased effects or side effects. Therefore, monitoring and dosage adjustments may be necessary for these individuals. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice regarding medication and liver health.

Yes. Drinking doesn't automatically cause cirrhosis and stopping drinking does not automatically prevent you from getting cirrhosis; ten year's down the line, your cirrhosis may not be alcohol related (there are many other potential causes of cirrhosis).

Or, there is the possibility that up to ten year's ago your liver was damaged (i.e fibroid, from drinking) but the function "declined" further at a slow rate until it became noticeable. Had you remained drinking, the decline would probably have been faster. Once your liver is fibroid (the stage before cirrhosis), it is very difficult for it to regenerate itself at a rate faster than it is degrading. Hence why, in ten year's, it might be catching up with you.

Possibly because the gall bladder is attached to the back of the liver.

No. The gallbladder only stores the bile that is produced in the liver. Your gallbladder only stores the bile. Your liver produces it. Since the bile is required to absorb fats through your intestines among other things you need it to live. Without the storage tank that only holds around a cup, Without it, it will just get secreted right to intestines but its not as effecient that way so you are better off with one but can live without it.
