Liver

The liver secretes bile which aids in the breakdown of lipids into fatty acids. The enzymes which speeds up the rate of the digestion of lipids is Lipase, and this is secreted by the pancreas.

The pancreas also secretes many other enzymes including: Two protease's are trypsin and chymotrypsin. These enzymes speed up the rate in which protein is digested into amino acids.

Amylase is also produced in the pancreas (As well as the salivary glands in the mouth), and amylase breaks down starch into maltose molecules

the liver produces bile and sends it through the gallbladder to digestive tract. Bile aids, as an emulsifier, by helping to breaking down solids. The liver also serves as a sort of filter for harmful agents to your body, that would otherwise be completely absorbed and circulated through your entire system.

A family of hemoproteins found in the liver called cytochrome P450, they're responsible for the oxidative metabolism of drugs, which is a part of Phase I metabolism, which prepares them for the Phase II metabolism, followed by drug excretion.

The liver serves to detoxify blood, to synthesize protein, and to produce certain biochemicals and enzymes necessary for digestion.

In the digestive system specifically, the liver serves to store glycogen, vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin B12, iron, and copper. It also breaks down toxic substances, turning them into proteins that can be excreted safely, and produces bile, a substance that facilitates digestion of lipids (fats) in the intestine.

No! It is part of the Digestive system because the liver detoxifies blood cells by mixing them with bile and by chemical alteration to less toxic substances, such as the alteration of ammonia to urea. Many chemical compounds are inactivated by the liver through modification of chemical structures. The liver converts glucose to a storage form of energy called glycogen, and can also produce glucose from sugars, starches, and proteins. The liver also synthesizes triglycerides and cholesterol, breaks down fatty acids, and produces plasma proteins necessary for the clotting of blood

The liver is also part of the endocrine system because it produces insulin like growth factors, Angiotensinogen, angeotensin and thrombopoetin

there are allot of ways your liver can fail one of the main ways if junk food ! the junk food passes down to your liver, your liver breaks this food up and too much course's the liver to shut down and not work any longer ( alcohol can course the same effect )

Bile is stored in the gall bladder after it is secreted from the liver.

If you mean after a night of drinking, yes. If you mean you drink every day in moderation there is no ill effect on the liver.

used to make other things in your body dissolve and to make you die and suffer. just kidding it is used to make atomic bombs and u r gay and very ugly. i hate you. go die alone in a stupid dark cave. noone will care. you are the worst thing made. jk i love u. jk i dont even know u. k bye .

No. Potassium, sodium and chloride all work together to maintain the bodies fluid pH levels, muscle contraction and relaxation and the maintenance of nerve transmission and function. Deficiency in either of these usually tend to address hypertension, difficulty digesting (chloride deficiency with hydrochloric acid as its component) and heart/kidney damage.

Ye it can of a slow and pain full death i am going to die on my birth day 25/9/96 and im only 12

Glycogen is the long-term energy storage for animals and most of an animals energy is exerted through motility or muscle movement so it would only make sense for glycogen to be broken down (through hydrolosis) where it was most needed; in the muscles.

bile is produced by the liver to help break down fats

The liver has over 200 functions in the human body. It converts nutrients to other forms, processes substances to be released in the blood, metabolizes harmful chemicals and stores an array of nutrients. The liver is one of your largest and heaviest organs contains an bladder which stores a juice called gall bladder.The juice is known as bile juice. Liver secrets the bile juice from a tube called bile duct and is mixed with the food

This is not a complete list by any means but at least here are the worst problems that could potentially lead to death(definitions not included): Liver failure, cirrhosis of the liver, jaundice(often related to hepatitis), hepatitis (A, B, C, and E, but D is not considered a major problem), and cancer. Due to the fact that the liver can actually regenerate, or heal itself, when symptoms of any of these diseases are present that means that the disease is in its advanced stages.

The liver is located in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen. In the average adult the liver is the largest organ of the body (excluding the skin). The liver has great regenerating properties (it filters toxins from the body) and is essential for life.

The gall bladder is in the right upper quadrant of the body..

The fluid that starts digestion is saliva. It is not the most important part of the digestive process, but it is the first part. * The part that everyone knows about comes next. When food enters the stomach it contacts pepsin, the most important digestive enzyme. The arrival of food stimulates the stomach to secrete deci-normal hydrochloric acid. This activates the pepsin. * If you have trouble believing this, try an experiment. Next time you get something stuck between your teeth, don't spend five minutes digging it out. Leave it strictly alone. In less than an hour, the saliva in your mouth will have digested enough of the surface of the food particle to make it a loose fit between your teeth, so it falls out.

the liver does over 500 different jobs. It removes poisons and damaged red blood cells from the bloodstream, it stores nutrients and makes them into vital substances, it breaks down fat and cholestrol, all sorts!

The liver's main job is to filter toxins from the body, most of which comes from undigestible waste. It also plays a secondary, indirect job as it creates bile, which the body uses to break down fats into usable parts and waste.

they don't empty anything- they only secrete liquids that help digest into the small intestine.
