CACHE Memory INTRODUCTION A CPU cache is a cache used by the central processing unit (CPU) of a computer to reduce the average time to access memory. The cache is a smaller‚ faster memory which stores copies of the data from frequently used main memory locations. Most CPUs have different independent caches‚ including instruction and data caches‚ where the data cache is usually organized as a hierarchy of more cache levels (L1‚ L2 etc.) When the processor needs to read from or write to

BILIRUBIN FORMATION AND EXCRETION Bilirubin‚ the principal pigment in bile‚ is derived from the breakdown of hemoglobin when aged red blood cells are phagocytized by the reticuloendothelial system‚ primarily in the spleen‚ liver and bone marrow. About 80% of bilirubin formed daily comes from the degradation of hemoglobin. The remainder comes from destruction of heme-containing proteins and catabolism of heme. When hemoglobin is destroyed‚ the protein portion‚ globin is reused in the body. The
