After‚ describe What produces bile (which cells)‚ the pathway it takes back to the GI tract‚ and its function (should include an enzyme). 3 main veins come together to form the hepatic portal vein and bring blood to the liver: Superior Mesenteric‚ Splenic‚ and the Inferior mesenteric. 1.

So essentially‚ the higher the concentration of hydrogen peroxide‚ the faster the reaction will take place. Furthermore‚ the foam (water and oxygen produced by the potatoes catalase reacting with hydrogen peroxide) was a kind of indicator of how the reaction was going. It almost indirectly related to the temperature increase‚ because every time the temperature was rising there also seemed to be foam also rising at the top of the hydrogen peroxide. As you can compare when the temperature started

In this experiment we are trying to determine the effect temperature has on catalase activity. We started out with five test tubes and then labeled them as we went about‚ after we added a catalase extract to each tube. Once added to each test tube they all sat in their respected temperature for ten minutes‚ so they could have a full effect. Once the time was up each was then collected and then we began to shake them from side to side for the foaming to start. When the foam settled‚ we discovered

gallbladder according to Dorland ’s Medical Dictionary is the pear shaped reservoir for the bile on the posteroinferior surface of the liver‚ between the right and the left quadrate lobe‚ from its neck the cystic duct projects to join the common bile duct ’. The function of the gallbladder in the human body is to solve and concentrate bile‚ which is produced by the liver and is necessary for proper digestion of fats. What are Gallstones? Gallstones form when the liquid stored in

Diagnosis: Physical symptoms of liver trauma include blood loss‚ tenderness of the region‚ peritoneal irritation and its guarding. Haemodynamically stable patients with suspected live injury should be investigated for imaging studies. Focused Assessment with Sonography in Trauma (FAST) is usually useful for both blunt and penetrating trauma. FAST has sensitivity from 75-94 % and specificity from 97-100 % for intra-abdominal fluid in trauma patients. FAST cannot distinguish between laceration and

is collapses and the solid is converted into liquid. The trend in structure is from the metallic oxides containing giant structures of ions on the left of the period via a giant covalent oxide in the middle to molecular oxides on the right. Sodium peroxide‚ magnesium oxide and aluminum oxide are metallic oxide which have high melting and boiling point compared to other period 3 oxide. This is due to their giant ionic structure and the strong ionic bond. Strong ionic bond in the molecule need more energy

The nurse is assessing a client with chronic hepatitis B who is receiving Lamivudine (Epivir). What information is most important to communicate to the physician? 1. The client’s daily record indicates a 3 kg weight gain over 2 days. 2. The client is complaining of nausea. 3. The client has a temperature of 99° F orally. 4. The client has fatigue. The nurse is assessing a client with hepatitis and notices that the AST and ALT lab values have increased. Which of the following statements

Macromolecular Composition of the Liver Cell Formal Report Aims The aim of the experiment was to test for the presence of DNA‚ RNA‚ protein and glycogen in the cytoplasm and the nucleus of bovine liver cells. From the findings of the results the distribution of these macromolecules can be shown within the liver cell. This was carried out by undertaking qualitative experiments‚ where the observation of a colour change was noted and a quantitative experiment‚ where numerical data was recorded from
