Dear Sir or Madam, Situated in the abdomen of vertebrates, and involved in many metabolic processes, I for one Liver, remain the second-largest organ. I perform numerous processes assisting with digestion, metabolism, immunity, including the storage of nutrients. I’m a glandular organ divided by openings. I operate in the emission of bile (Greenish liquid that responsible for chemical digestion of fats if your unaware) along with numerous metabolic processes. These processes are essential for…

1) Name the two types of inflammatory bowel disease and discuss the differences between the two types and their characteristics including diarrhea, rectal bleeding and areas involved? “Inflammatory bowel diseases are of two types: Regional entitis (Crohn’s disease) and Ulcerative colitis”. (Bare, Day, Paul, Smeltzer & Williams, 2010, p. 1172). Regional colitis refers to the inflammation of GI tract and most commonly affects the distal ileum and ascending colon. The inflammation begins with edema…

collect into the heapatic ducts, which then collect in the common heapatic ducts. The heapatic ducts join by the cystic duct to create the common bile duct. These would run from the liver to the duodenum, which would be the first section of the small intestine. However, not all the bile flows directly into the duodenum. About half of the bile that is produced by the liver is stored in the gallbladder first. When food is eaten the gallbladder would contract and release the bile that was stored…

Lacteals Lacteals absorb fats from food passing through the small intestine in the villi. Spleen The spleen is the largest organ in the lymphatic system, it is important for maintaining a balance between body fluids. It is located below the ribcage, above the stomach. The function of it is to filter the blood of any foreign invaders, provide a reservoir of oxygen (rich blood) and to dispose of worn out erythrocytes. They also remove old and damaged blood cells.

The regulation of acid and pepsin secretion is associated with a balance of chemo-transmitters delivered to the gastric mucosa by pathways that facilitate stimulation and inhibition. The physiologic stimulation of acid secretion is divided into the cephalic, gastric, and intestinal. The main component of gastric secretion is HCL which is a product of the parietal cells. The parietal cells are epithelial cells that secrete HCL and essential factors. Parietal cells are located in the gastric…

Basically, we have many disease to death in the world. Bowel disease is one of the main problem disease. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which is included of Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, is a chronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract resulting in symptoms.

Description and Prevalence Esophagus is part of the gastrointestinal (GI) system located in the upper body, posterior to the trachea (Huether and McCance, 2012). The esophagus consists of four layers (from outermost to innermost layer): adventitia, musculairis propria, submucosa and mucosa. The submucosa and the mucosa layers are very important because they are the common sites for cancer development. The submucosa layer contains gland cells that produce mucus for lubrication and aiding the…

Cholecystitis, a condition also referred to as gallbladder disease, occurs when an individual’s gallbladder becomes inflamed. This inflammation is usually caused by gallstones, which block the tube through which bile is usually released. The buildup is responsible for the inflammation. Gallstones are common, particularly in Western populations. In the United States, gallstones are seen in approximately 6% of men and 9% of women. The incidence in children is not known; however, gallstones/biliary…
